Experience Newport’s Creative Spirit: The Salon Series at The Brenton Hotel Library
Returning to Rhode Island has been a transformative journey for me, especially as I dive back into the vibrant art scene of Newport. The community here is not only rich in history and creativity, but it also offers an incredible platform for connection and collaboration among artists. I've been fortunate to engage with local galleries, artists, and initiatives like the Newport Artists Collective, which has reignited my passion for the arts. Attending events like the Salon Series at the Brenton Hotel has allowed me to meet talented individuals, such as Karen Roarke, and immerse myself in discussions that celebrate the local culture. Rediscovering Newport through its art community has deepened my appreciation for the creative spirit that thrives here.
The Salon Series at the Brenton Hotel’s Library, a gathering that highlights Newport’s rich artistic culture and connects creatives through intimate conversations and art showcases, brings the energy and diversity of work presented reinforced the vibrancy of Newport’s art scene, championed by the Newport Artists Collective and unique spaces like CUSP Art Gallery. It’s incredible to be part of such a passionate community and witness firsthand how art continues to shape and inspire this city. They offer an immersive experience into Newport’s fine art scene, inviting both guests and the local community to enjoy wine, hors d'oeuvres, and intimate conversations with featured artists and gallery owners.

Now, I find myself irresistibly drawn to Newport, not just for its breathtaking views, but also for the genuinely welcoming spirit of the people who call this place home. Every time I visit, I'm struck by the warmth and friendliness of the community, from the passionate artists showcasing their work to the dedicated chefs crafting unforgettable meals. It feels like I’m part of something bigger, a tapestry woven from the stories and talents of those around me.
