Since 1988, the Society has hosted an annual awards banquet at the Roger Williams Park Casino in Providence, Rhode Island.  The banquet is traditionally held the week before Labor Day.  We have honored labor historians, women in the labor movement, Rhode Islanders who have left the state and made their mark elsewhere; unsung heroes and heroines in the working class, and those outside of the labor movement who have been our allies.  This has been our most popular event, drawing crowds of several hundred yearly.

Thanks to everyone who attended this year's RILHS Banquet!
