The Arts and Cultural Alliance of Newport County’s monthly networking event, Arts Around the Fire, wraps up for the season on Wednesday, April 19th from 6-8pm at PARLOR Bar & Kitchen at 200 Broadway in Newport.  The Alliance’s guests will be artists and organizers of the LaFarge Arts Center.  

The Center has grown out of the restoration of the Newport Congregational Church, with its important murals and stained glass windows by American artist John La Farge. Parish house offices are now home to artists studios and arts entrepreneurs, and the magnificent sanctuary hosts live performances and events.  

Arts Around the Fire is an opportunity for artists, writers, performers and audiences to engage with colleagues about events affecting the cultural community and learn about new ideas and good work being done.  Sign up for an artist membership or become a supporting member of the Alliance, a coalition of individuals and non-profits committed to the advancement of arts and culture in Newport County.  Please join us, free, utterly informal, no reservations needed.
