(9.9) You drive by it all the time, here’s your chance to step inside and take a look around. The Providence Art Club invites the public to come check them out this Saturday afternoon with open artist studios, guided tours, live music, with food and cocktail specials at the Providence Art Club Block Party:
This event is free and open to the public. We want to connect with the community of Providence and surrounding counties, so what better way than to host a Block Party to meet everyone and welcome you through our doors. We will have live music, incredible drink collaborations with local companies, delicious food from our very own food truck, as well as guided studio and gallery tours! We also can’t forget the beautiful, tax free art that fills our walls and gallery spaces.
In addition to checking out the art and poking around the galleries, go through that white gate and into the courtyard. The newer addition behind the building is impressive. You may be surprised to find yourself looking at the old tunnel entrance with Mills Tavern down on North Main Street.
(Be advised: RISD seems to have a Welcome Week Block Party on its schedule, same hours. Benefit Street may be busy/closed to traffic.)
Prov Art Club Bock Party, free and open to the public, noon to 4pm, Saturday, September 9, Prov Art Club, 11 Thomas Street, (directions)
