A fun holiday event at the Knight Library will benefit the Community Libraries of Providence. We will begin working them shortly on the design of the Rye Street Library project, so any good will and relationship building we can provide to them in advance as partners in community would be lovely (and spooky!). Note the event is for ages 21 and up!

A group of us set out to the Block by early boat and made a day of it. We biked, hiked, beached, rented a car when mopeds failed us, and checked off some cool sites, to boot. Before departing, we regrouped at Yellow Kittens to cheers the fantastic day with frozen margaritas!

A handful of the Providence crew made the trip south this month for the first (annual?) Philly Pilgrimage, timed up with the Philly office’s summer party for an extra special celebration. Between the party, and exploring the city, there was more than a little talk about how much everyone loved Philly… enough that we’re starting to suspect the trip was really just a plot to lure more of the PVD crew south.
