Histwick Historical Society
Histwick, formerly called the Wickford Historical Society in Rhode Island, needed a new website that would serve their very active community, highlight their activities, and represent their organization to the outside world.
Histwick has been voted the #1 Best Small Historic Town in the USA for 2022.
Histwick.org’s website and organization has been recognized by Preservation RI as an outstanding example of a small town historical society.
