The Rosé Garden Party is a great way to kick off the summer season in style! Held on the grounds and inside the 1865 Lippitt House on Providence’s East Side, this annual party is a vintage-inspired event with live music, yard games including croquet, light bites, and a variety of rosé wines.
A fun summer afternoon in the lusciously landscaped garden, every guest receives a Lippitt House Museum wine glass to take home after the party as a memento.
Proceeds from the Rosé Garden Party support Lippitt House Museum programs throughout the year.
