What is Plein Air Painting? Plein air painting is the practice of painting landscapes or subjects directly outdoors, "in the open air," rather than in a studio. Meaning we will be venturing out to the places themselves to paint them. The set up will be the use of standing french easels and masonite boards for your canvas. My hope with these workshops and classes is to bring folks together and connect through intentional art making inspired by our surrounding community!

Light of Hope

Saturday, July 25 | 10:00 to 11:30 a.m.
Developed as a healing art, qigong is a gentle yet empowering movement practice that strengthens your vital energy (qi). Similar to tai chi, it is usually practiced slowly while standing, but because it does not involve a specific sequence of movements it is simpler to learn. No experience needed.
Following qigong practice, we will settle onto the floor to learn a few self-acupressure points. (A couple chairs will be available if needed.) The workshop will conclude with a brief meditation, either seated or supine, in which acupressure will be offered. Bring a mat or blanket if you have one, and wear loose clothing.
This workshop will be led by Michelle Morisi, DACM, a practitioner of Chinese medicine and certified qigong instructor. Learn more about Michelle at<a href="https://acupuncturebymichelle.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"> acupuncturebymichelle.com</a>.
Advance registration is required. Learn more &amp; register here:<a href="https://www.acupuncturebymichelle.com/workshop" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"> https://www.acupuncturebymichelle.com/workshop</a>.

Artists' Exchange

Trial by Theatre is a new Rhode Island and Southern Massachusetts theatre company built on the belief that theatre should be boundless and accessible to all. For their debut production, they present The Grown-Ups, written by Simon Henriques and Skylar Fox and directed by Cyrus Busteed.

Following a group of camp counselors trying to mold the leaders of tomorrow when tomorrow is looking bleaker and bleaker, The Grown-Ups explores the traditions that change us, what it takes for us to change them, and how to change yourself when you're hopelessly, tragically not prepared for this.

Performances run August 14 through 22, 2026 at Artists' Exchange Black Box Theater, 50 Rolfe Square, Cranston, RI 02910. Tickets available at <a href="https://www.artists-exchange.org/theatre" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.artists-exchange.org/theatre</a>
