mills

On September 25 - 26, 2010 from 11 am to 5 pm more than 80 artists in the historic mills of Pawtucket, Rhode Island, are opening their studios to the public during the city's celebration of the arts, the Twelfth Annual Pawtucket Arts Festival.

Art Calendar Magazine included Pawtucket on its list of the 10 most artist-friendly locations in the nation. Through the support of city government and community leaders, artists are flocking from across the country to set up their studios in the spacious mill buildings that formerly served the city's textile industry.
