SOLVE THE CRIME!

Search the galleries for clues and interrogate the suspects…

Bring the whole family, come with a group of friends, or test your sleuthing skills alone for 90 minutes of fast-paced fun and interactive entertainment at the Newport Art Museum!

View the Museum’s beautiful architecture and historical and contemporary art on display. Its permanent collections and changing exhibits feature works created by Rhode Island and southern New England artists.

You’ll be guaranteed to meet a cast of colorful characters dressed in gorgeous period costumes… but be careful who you trust, or you might just end up the victim!

Kiss of Death

It’s 1890 and you’re invited to the engagement party for John Jacob “Jack” Astor IV, heir to the Astor family fortune. Jack’s mother, “the” Mrs. Astor, has selected 3 of the finest debutantes as candidates for her only son. Who will win the heart and purse strings of the wealthiest bachelor in Newport society?

It’s all fun and games until Jack’s bride-to-be is revealed, when the gloves come off and a murderer takes the ring…

Search the galleries for clues, question the suspects, and help solve the crime before the evening ends. All’s fair in love, war, and arranged marriages.
