PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] – Stop by the Orwig Music Library from now until December 21 to see an exhibit about the building’s history curated by Senior Library Specialist, Nancy Jakubowski.

The large brick mansion began as a residence for a member of the Sprague family and later, a Brown alumnus, Isaac Gifford Ladd. It also served as a private hospital, and as classrooms and administrative offices for Bryant College. The display features photographs courtesy of the HELIN Digital Commons website and Bryant University, as well as photos and memorabilia from Brown University Archives.
