Little Compton Connected: A Local Transportation Story was a special exhibition that explored the history of transportation in Little Compton from the time of the Sakonnet Wampanoag people to the present day. The exhibit focused on the connections that linked Little Compton with the outside world in ways that are surprising to us today because of Little Comptons current rural nature.
