This is kind of like naming your band Standing Room Only. Theater owners must have known when they signed up for this film that they would have to add at least one extra week. It will probably work our fine. The Holdovers reunites Sideways alums Paul Giamatti and director Alexander Payne in a Christmas story …

The Providence Preservation Society sent out this update today: PPS, Councilman John Goncalves and the College Hill Neighborhood Association hosted a vigil for the …

As such the Providence Journal has been …

This former practice piano sits beneath the towering maples and hemlocks behind the Orwig Music Building, slowly becoming one with the universe. Prior to the intervention of Ph.D. candidate Devanney Haruta, the Brown University Music Department had it slated for a trip to the dump, but inspired by Australian composer Ross Bolleter’s work with “ruined …
(11.25) You should be supporting your local independent businesses all year long — they invest in your community, employ your family and friends, pay local taxes, maintain the brick-and-mortar storefronts that make for a vibrant neighborhood, and offer unique, often locally made, goods.
