WARWICK — Now that the time capsule from 1967 has been dug up from Veterans Memorial Park, residents have been inquiring about the contents.
The items that were placed in the capsule 50 years ago will be on display until September at the A.W. Buckbee Center, located at 2 Colonial Ave. in Warwick.
Everyone can view the exhibit Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and on Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The exhibit includes a variety of items from notes and letters to coins, photographs, certificates, newspapers and even pieces of floor tile.
Visitors to the A.W. Buckbee Center will also be able to place items in the time capsule that will be buried in the fall and opened in 2067.
After September, the exhibit will move to the Albert Wisner Public Library, located at 1 McFarland Drive in Warwick and will be open during library hours.
