The 40th Annual RI Open opens next month at the Warwick Center for the Arts.
Juried this year by
@richardwhittenart, Professor of Painting at Rhode Island College, the RI Open is a themeless show. 40 years of giving Rhode Island artists a wall for whatever they've been making. The result is a wide range of media and a room that rewards a slow walk through it.
· Opening reception: Thursday, October 8, 6:30 – 8pm
· Show run: October 8 – November 21, 2026
· Gallery hours: Wednesday – Saturday, 12 – 5
Warwick Center for the Arts, 3259 Post Road, Warwick RI
Parking: 3273 Post Road, lot behind the building
Free and open to all
