The Rhode Island city of Woonsocket was one of many textile manufacturing centers in New England. By 1920, 70% of its citizens were French-Canadian. On May 10, the Hopkinton Historical Society will provide two guided tours: the Museum of Work and Culture, and St. Ann Arts and Cultural Center. The museum walks through 11 interpretive exhibits of that era. St. Ann, a former cathedral, features fresco paintings covering the ceiling and walls in the style of Michelangelo and Raphael. A donation of $20 ($16 for seniors) covers both tours. For more information, email Joe Hall at joebjuan63@gmail.com.
