Art Events to Attend around Providence – Too Many to Name
March 3, 2010
Searching through Providence’s Department of Arts, Culture & Tourism’s newsletter, several interesting events are coming up in March. As always, the city is bustling with activity. Here’s a couple that support good causes.
To start off, how would you like to be treated like the stars? The Rhode Island International Film Festival is the only officially sanctioned host for an Academy Awards party. It is being held at the VMA on March 7 starting at 6:30pm – complete with the red carpet treatment. The cost is $55 per person, and the proceeds of this “dress to impress” event benefit the RIIFF.
If you are not into the movies, how about live theater? Perishable Theater is having a fundraiser which features internationally-acclaimed mandolinist & bandolimist Marilynn Mair performing choro, samba, bossa nova and some of Marilynn’s original Rio-inspired compositions. This is also on the 7th but starts at 5:00pm and costs $25 per person.
