When you’ve had your fill of traversing Benefit Street on ghost tours lit by lantern light, or having teenagers in masks leap out at you from haunted corn mazes, there is a more relaxing and scholarly option to get into the Halloween spirit this October. It takes place in a library, a setting where certainly […]
In a week that had the Red Sox and Yankees fined for Apple Watches and clandestine dugout cell phones, it’s a reminder that even a stalwart like our national pastime isn’t immune from the infiltration of modern technology. Of course, ask any high school or college teacher about tech in the classroom, and the answer […]
The Knickerbocker Express rolls into the Westerly station on a railroad made of piano keys. Ahead of the station, a silhouette of a man carries his guitar to a jazz club. Whatever song he’ll play, we won’t get to hear. The musically themed mural tells the story of The Knickerbocker Cafe, the blues club built […]
If you work from home in Rhode Island, prepare yourself each winter for a wave of resentment from friends and family. Watching your car disappear under an igloo of snow until you’re ready to dig out, working in cozy clothes … these are the benefits of gigging and working from home, flexibility and a temperature-controlled […]
Between August 17 and 20, literary lovers and aficionados of gaming, the occult and monsters will travel to Providence from across the world — not because of our status as Creative Capital, but because we’re the birthplace of HP Lovecraft. More than 2,000 people attended the last NecronomiCon in 2015, and in its third year, […]
For many, the words “woman” and “animation” lead to one uniform image: The Disney Princess. Maybe Betty Boop if you’re into icons, maybe “Let It Go” played on infinite loop if we’re taking into account aural associations and you have a child under age 10. The Womanimation! Film Festival, now in its ninth year, returns […]
“If you’re like, ‘Lady, I don’t want to go into downward dog, I want to pet a goat,’ that’s fine. That’s what you’re here for.” Marilva Wedge, owner of Open Doors Yoga in Taunton, knows her audience. Right now, her audience is 30 people who paid $30 each to travel to Taunton’s Pine Hill Farm […]
It doesn’t matter how ugly your tomato is. That tomato is yours, and you grew it from an upside down soda bottle hanging off a fire escape. We all want to feel the sense of personal accomplishment that swells inside us when we’ve successfully kept a thing alive. But sometimes, situations like living in an […]
It’s the sort of job most kids wouldn’t believe an adult could actually have. Don Fleck travels the world inspecting amusement parks. Fleck works for CLM Entertainment — a Woonsocket company employed by insurance companies and international organizations to make sure amusement parks, water parks and anything that falls under the umbrella of “amusement” is […]
It’s possible we take WaterFire for granted. That in and of itself may seem impossible. Surely — if you’ve spent any summers in Rhode Island since 1994 — you’ve braved the crowds and spent an evening circling the river basin in Waterplace Park, tried to catch a human statue blinking in Memorial Park and stood […]
