What an amazing artist space!…read more The owners, Norv and Amanda, are possibly the nicest people ever, and have done a fantastic job redesigning this old factory building into a HUGE, elegant space for artists of all kinds. You can get your own space, or share open space with access to pottery wheels and a kiln for a minimal price. It's kind of like an artist's dream - the inspiring space, the friendly community, the freedom to work alone or in the company of others... And the gallery is beautiful, with huge ceilings and exposed brick, and striking work by the members. They have several shows a year, well worth seeing.

An old mill complex has been turned into a multi-purpose space. Rhode Island history is full of mills and I love that they re-purposed these buildings instead of knocking them down. There is on street parking, some in a courtyard (a tight squeeze for the larger vehicles) a small lot across the road on Main Street, a smaller lot on Dudley street and a large lot at the bottom of the hill behind the mill. Give yourself a few extra minutes to find your parking spot.

This makes her an exceptional art instructor and you can see it in the work of her students! My daughter just started taking lessons from Ms. Venditto and I can already see a HUGE improvement in her techniques. There's a showcase at the end of the winter sessions (8 weeks total, 2 hours a week), but was able to take a sneak peak. I got the chance to introduce myself to the teacher today and talk to her a bit. She's warm, welcoming, and very easy to talk to. I also love the high level of professionalism of her business--very important to me. Online registration and payment are available online and confirmation is sent via email, which makes enrollment very convenient. FYI, she's currently a high school teacher in a different town and has to commute. Gotta admire her dedication! Luckily, we live close by. Students who get the chance to study under her are fortunate.

There are so many surprises within this one building. A bunch of apartments above, the shared office space and incubator kitchen on the main level. A bocci ball court, cornhole, grill and picnic tables in the courtyard. There is also another building out back that is not currently being utilized but is another amazing (small) space for something amazing once they figure out its intended purpose. My favorite part is the amount of items they salvaged during the rehab. From machinery to metal drawers, they incorporated as much as they could into the overall aesthetic of the place. Kudos to a great job and preserving such a hidden gem.
