Description
In honor of the 125th anniversary of the Inn’s presence in the Weekapaug community, we invite you to come meet architect Thomas Kligerman and enjoy a discussion about Costal Cottage Architecture. Although Tom was raised in Connecticut, he is a Weekapaug resident, spent numerous summers along our shoreline, and shares beautifully captured architectural moments within Weekapaug and the coast on Instagram at @TomKligerman.
In this presentation, Tom will highlight some of the historic cottages of Weekapaug along with other wondrous residential architecture found in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. Light refreshments will be served.
