The Narragansett Department of Parks and Recreation and the Narragansett Land Conservancy Trust invite you to their Kinney Bungalow Open House at Sunset Farm on Tuesday evenings this summer. This weekly open house resumes through August 29th.
Recorded on the National Register of Historic Places, the beautiful Bungalow, built in 1899, has held numerous extravagant dances, parties and celebrations. In past summers, the American Ballet Theatre troupe used the Bungalow as their summer rehearsal site. The home and farm are Narragansett’s most picturesque and historic landmark, perfect for enjoying an atmospheric summer sunset to match its name. Bring your camera.
