Museum: Gallery

The Rhode Island State Police Museum ground breaking was on June 12th, 1998. Since that time it has gone from a shovel of dirt, to a work in progress, to a completed restoration. We are pleased to announce that the Grand Opening was Thursday, May 18, 2006, which was during National Police Week. Below you will see the incredible progress that has shaped the museum into it's present form. Just click on the thumbnail to see a larger picture. Many people have put a lot of hard work into this project already, but we need your help as the museum project is being funded entirely through the generosity of donations. Please consider donating to this worthy project by clicking on Make a Donation.
