Slater Mill is a museum complex dedicated to bringing one of the most exciting and significant periods of American history to life. Visitors to the site experience a time when an America of small farmers and craftsmen was poised to become the industrial leader of the world. Visitors are surrounded by vintage textile machinery bathed in the light of large windows. With expert commentary from costumed interpreters they can imagine the lives of the people who made the early mills come alive.
Located along the banks of the Blackstone River, the grounds at Slater Mill and Wilkinson Mill come alive. A great outdoor venue accesible by Roosevelt Avenue and Main Street, with parking on Roosevelt between the mill and City Hall, or across from City Hall after municipal hours.
