OPEN STUDIOS / Artists & Artisans Community

The Mill at Shady Lea in North Kingstown, RI is a special artist & artisans community where creativity flourishes. Over 30 studios open their doors for this special weekend event in early December to showcase their talents, artworks and workspaces for others to enjoy and get a jump start on holiday shopping. The talent and wares showcased are widely varied - ranging from jewelry, rugs, blown glass, sculpture, photography, paintings, rare books, art relics, pottery, fiber art and more! Also, admission is free, parking is free, and purchases are tax-free and one of a kind.
