Join us on Saturday April 18 at 9:30 am at the BH&PS HQ, 48 Court Street, Bristol, RI, for a workshop entitled “Know Your Options: New Materials for Your Old House”.
Architect and preservation expert Vincent Pacifico will lead this exploration into which modern materials are appropriate for use on historic buildings and how they can be best used in ways that maintain historic character, but are also functional and sustainable. The event will start with a conversational show-and-tell about which modern materials have been recently approved for the Bristol Historic District and then take participants on a walking tour of their use on buildings right here in town. Vincent, who owns and runs the full service architectural studio Pacific-Visions Studio, will also talk about his time working on historic structures and what he has seen in the field.
Advanced Registration is required and space is limited. Tickets cost $20/$15 for BH&PS members and can be purchased at bhpsri.org. For more information, please email [email protected].
