There’s something subtly magical about stepping into The Arctic Playhouse, a venue that feels more like a living room shared by close friends rather than a theater. With oven-baked cookies, coffee or cocktail in hand, the audience settles in for Harvey, Mary Chase’s Pulitzer-winning play about a man and his giant invisible rabbit. Yes, you […]
On November 25, 2023, Brown Student and Palestinian-Irish American, Hisham Arwatani, was shot in Burlington, Vermont, while visiting family during his Thanksgiving break. He, alongside two of his friends, was taking a walk while wearing Keffiyehs and speaking a mix of English and Arabic when they were unprovokedly shot at. One was shot in the […]
This year, AS220 is partnering with Spocka Summa of Anti-Robot Club and Public to bring a marketplace to Foo Fest on Saturday, August 9th.

I liked the various punk rock looks (spiky fashion punks, Fred Perry/well-dressed Oi), but I’ve pretty much been wearing a band T-shirt and khaki pants since high school. Andy Ryan (Raggedy Andy) took a different path and embraced the fashion aspects of […]
The summer season is approaching its end. For corporate America, this might be the slowest season of the year. But for farms and other companies that thrive in the summer, busy is merely an understatement. Rhode Island is not known as the Ocean State just for its shoreline.

Today I smelled the change in the air, that slight crispness we all recognize. The transition from summer to fall is my favorite seasonal shift. Electricity surges through our spaces.
