Summer is on the horizon here in Rhode Island and our calendars have events and gatherings on them again. What could be better? How about a weekly rooftop gathering at The WaterFire Arts Center in Providence, complete with cocktails, art, and DJ spinning? We thought so. TroopTop Thursdays are officially in full swing, and they’re a blast.

The WaterFire Arts Center is located at 475 Valley Street in Providence.

Every Thursday throughout the summer, you can join other locals right here on this rooftop for a one-of-a-kind party.
