ABOUT THE MUSEUM

The Museum of Work & Culture presents the compelling story of immigrants who came to find a better life in the mill towns along the Blackstone River. Visitors recreate this journey, beginning in a Quebecois farmhouse before making their way to the workday world of Woonsocket at the turn of the century. Guests explore the lives of immigrants at home, work, and school through nine immersive exhibits.

While society often overlooks and undervalues play, they are here to celebrate and elevate it.  Because they know play isn’t frivolous. It’s foundational. They are the champions of play. Play isn’t killing time. It’s creating a character. Everything they want from our children is already in them. And play is how they unlock it.

For Families:
They have collected an extensive resource of creative activities that will engage kids and their caregivers wherever you may be.

* The passes expire on 5/31/2024

Samuel Slater Experience

2 free E-Tickets to the Samuel Slater Experience in Webster, Ma. at an approximate value of $36.

Why Samuel Slater; Why in Webster?
Samuel Slater became involved in the textile industry at the age of 14 and completed a seven-year-long apprenticeship in the “art of cotton spinning.” He left his home country of England in 1789 and came to Pawtucket, Rhode Island to start his own cotton-spinning business. In 1812, he moved his mills north, to what is currently known as Webster, Massachusetts. It is all thanks to Samuel Slater for the creation of Webster, forged from the neighboring towns of Oxford and Dudley, with the help of his friend, the famous Senator Daniel Webster. Unfortunately, most of this history has faded from current memory.
