TroopTop Thursday, August 3 at the WaterFire Arts Center

The community is invited to TroopTop Thursdays at the WaterFire Arts Center every Thursday this summer, through August 31. WaterFire Providence and Valley neighborhood restaurant, Troop PVD, have collaborated to create a roof top bar with live musical performances and arts experiences as well as a fundraiser for the featured non-profit organization of the night. TroopTop is supported by Cross Insurance and US Rubber Lofts, proudly managed by Brady Sullivan Properties. Programming for each evening is presented by Little Guy At The Gig. 

Thursday, August 3

TroopTop on Thursday, August 3 is from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. with live musical performances by Nick Bishop and Bare Cove. Inside the gallery and Main Hall is the is the Providence Biennial exhibitions, POIESIS and REMEDY. Outside, our new neighbors, Archery Games Providence will be popping up so visitors can test out their archery skills!

TroopPVD will donate a portion of the proceeds from sales of their specialty cocktail to Central Providence Opportunities: A Health Equity Zone. The Rhode Island Department of Health (RIDOH) established Health Equity Zones (HEZs) in 2015 to improve community health in areas that need it most.  HEZs are collaboratives of residents, community organizations, health professionals, and others who come together to address the root causes of health disparities. The HEZs work to ensure every neighborhood has a fair and just opportunity to be healthier. This work requires removing obstacles to health such as poverty, discrimination, racism, and their consequences, including insufficient access to good jobs with fair pay, quality education, affordable housing, safe environments, and healthcare.

Snacks provided by UNFI Cafe PVD.
