Please join us in celebrating the 150th anniversary of our storied mansion with Michelin-starred Chef Nick Curtin. Chef Nick, of Copenhagen’s acclaimed Alouette, will join forces with Aurelia’s culinary team for a one-of-a-kind gastronomic experience. Originally from Providence, Rhode Island, he is returning to his roots for this milestone occasion.
Built in 1875 by renowned Harvard marine biologist and naturalist Alexander Agassiz, the mansion today is home to Aurelia, where contemporary New England cuisine shines with ingredient-driven, locally sourced dishes that highlight sustainability and seasonality. Sharing a similar ethos, Alouette- recipient of both a Michelin Star and a Michelin Green Star- is rooted in sustainability and equally committed to thoughtful sourcing, respect for ingredients, and a culinary style that balances innovation with a grounded sense of place.
This dining experience will take place on October 17 and 18, 2025, with four seatings offered each evening. Guests will enjoy a curated six-course menu celebrating Rhode Island’s local bounty, from peak-season produce to the region’s renowned seafood and artisanal purveyors.
Reservations will be available beginning September 17. The six-course menu is priced at $165 per person, with wine and spirit-free pairings available at an additional cost. For this event, unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate any dietary restrictions to allow our guests to fully enjoy this experience.
