This group has been created for people in Rhode Island, SE Mass, and Central Mass to view and discuss independent and foreign films (both feature length and shorts) and concerts from musicians around the world.

Events would be mostly in the Providence area with maybe monthly road trips to Boston, Worcester, New Bedford, or other New England locations for special events.  

We're open to suggestions for events from all our members and hope to develop a great group of people to support some of the fine independent artistic events going on in our neck of the woods.

Cheers,

Toni P. and Paul E.
