Northern, RI – “What’s there to do this weekend?” you ask.

We have a few ideas, and they’re all close to home.

Welcome to The Weekend, northern Rhode Island, our weekly roundup of all the fun you can find in a three-town radius over the next four days.

This week’s highlights include a Van Gogh-inspired painting brunch at Burrillville’s Art Box Studio on Sunday. It’s the final week to catch a free show at the Stillwater Mill pavilion with the Riverwalk Concert Series Saturday evening, and on Sunday, Mulberry Vineyards will offer live entertainment to enjoy with your vino.

Sunday night, don’t forget to visit the grounds of the Assembly Theatre for live music, libations and a variety of culinary delights at the Assembly of Food Trucks.

Make the most of what’s left of the summer with a stop to these great local venues. Tell them NRI NOW sent you.
