BRIGHT NIGHT PROVIDENCE • •
December 31, 2011 Location: Various venues in Providence www.brightnight.org
Bright Night Providence is an artist-run arts oriented New Years Eve Celebration. It carries on in the tradition of First Night Providence. Each year we've been able to re-create this family friendly tradition. This year (the NINTH!), the artists are planning on doing it again, and they are planning on doing it bigger, bolder, and better. More venues, more high quality artists, and more family friendly programming.
FROM THE CONCIERGE DESK On behalf of Crossroads Rhode Island, we would like to express a thank you to all that donated to our annual Holiday Charity Drive. All items that were donated go straight to families in need.
You may have noticed that our Staff looked a little more festive this holiday season! Starting with National Aids Week, all of the Concierge staff adorned red for the month of December. Joe & David During this year’s holiday seson
