Rhode Island's daily paper of record.

Forgotten Providence is a documentation of decay of a city’s homes and neighborhoods; A photographic essay
in the use of building, structures, land, and environment; An account of homes and residences, long abandoned, and long forgotten;
and An attempt to fix this problem as taken upon by the few, and open to all.

We at ArtInRuins believe that decay is beautiful, but not necessary. Artists live and work in the buildings that
the city or developers have often forgotten, and now that Providence is becoming a hip town (or a suburb of Boston) these
buildings and the artists, musicians and businesses who lived and worked in them are getting used for purposes that do not
contribute to the community in the same way. We are not against new development, we are only opposed to unsustainable or irresponsible
development.

RISD | Public Engagement Blog
The Public Engagement Blog lists service opportunities, scholarly resources, conferences, and events that connect art and
design with the public good.

This is a forum for sharing and generating new knowledge about making creative thought and expression a part of all of our
lives. Powered by Blogger, we hope these conversations about community arts programs, past enewsletters, student and mentor
perspectives on New Urban Arts, etc. support artists, educators, and entrepreneurs engaged in this work.

Greater City: Providence promotes the growth and development of the Greater Providence region in as urban a pattern
as possible. Special focus is placed on the development of more walkable, affordable, and vibrant neighborhoods that are served
by more robust mass transit and fueled by greater economic opportunity. We hope to see the Providence of the future is an
urban environment and not a city plagued by inconsistent, uninspired, automobile-centric, and suburban-style development.
