Really cool! All sorts of different and unique things too look at and buy here. The main thing that peaked my interest was the arcade table! Now that is what I like to call TOTALLY EPIC! (:

Attended a beer festival here and it was a great spot for an event. Lots of indoor space, never got too loud due to the fall ceilings, and ample parking.

Real class art in Providence. Culture in exhibits and events. A full schedule through the year will draw you in for special events. The area teems with history and local flavor. This only adds and supports the Arts Center. Very fortunate to have this quality so close. Worth several trips through the year, you wont be disappointed.

Volunteer coordinators Kim & Kat need racial bias training and definitely learn to listen both sides of the story/argument before disrespecting someone

One of the best book stores in the state I believe. I was there for Fringe and I was there to see the moon exhibit. I wish I had more money so I could give them an annual gift. Maybe this year, maybe not.

I loooove the atmosphere here. Huge, crazy oversize crane hooks hang overhead as you wander through whatever event is happening here. This is an old abandoned and repurposed metal foundry, if Im not mistaken. The brickwork and just everything about this place is so cool.

This is a beautiful space to have an event in. Capacity is large, however, it doesn’t feel overwhelming. There are rooms upstairs for guests that need privacy or employees. Plenty of spaces for bars, coat check, check in, and food stations, if you’d want. Acoustics are nice, too. Overall, a great place with the ability to transform to what you need.
