Things to Do in Rhode Island for the Artist

The combination of Rhode Island’s natural beauty, innovative spirit and world-renowned Rhode Island School of Design have made our state a magnet for artists and art lovers alike.  Visitors can experience famous works of art by masters including Monet and Van Gogh as well as more contemporary artists like Jackson Pollock and Andy Warhol at the RISD Museum of Art in Providence.  Our arts scene isn’t limited to the capital city, however, with independent galleries and studios located throughout the state, as well as public art like the immensely popular and award-winning WaterFire Providence.  With open studio tours, gallery nights, art festivals, lectures, exhibits and performances taking place all year long, Rhode Island offers countless opportunities to experience, appreciate and participate in all forms of art.  Plus, with no sales tax on art, you can go home with great, original, local art at a great price!
