Courthouse Center for the Arts

Welcome to a magical week where classic fairytales come to life on stage! In our Once Upon a Time weeklong summer camp, young performers ages 7 to 15 will dive into the enchanting world of musical theatre. Whether your child is a seasoned star or stepping onto the stage for the very first time, this immersive week is designed to build confidence, foster creativity, and celebrate the magic of storytelling through song, dance, and drama. There will be two performances after the camp for young performers to show off what they've learned to family and friends! Space is limited to ensure personalized attention for every performer. Reserve your child's spot and let their imagination take center stage this summer!

For children ages 7-15. Parents/guardians need to fill out consent forms and have their ticket paid before the deadline on Thursday, July 2, 2026. Please call 401-782-1018 to complete your forms. Please sign up now, as space is limited to small classes. Spaces are filling up fast, and we cannot hold spots without completed forms and payment.

Children are encouraged to bring a lunch or snack, as class runs from 9:00AM until 1:00PM daily. Performances will be Thursday, July 9th @ 2pm &amp; 7pm.

Maury Loontjens Memorial Library

The first presentation will cover the history of downtown Narragansett from 1900 to 1969. Major hurricanes in 1938 and 1954 flooded downtown and led to an effort by the Army Corps of Engineers to build storm protection. This was voted down by the residents in 1965. Ultimately a group of citizens led by Royal Little embarked on a plan to transform what some called an old downtown into a vibrant commercial district under the aegis of the Federal Urban Renewal Program. Plans were developed and town residents largely supported the effort in a vote in 1969. A video that was utilized by the town to win approval for that 1969 vote will complete this lecture. This will be presented by Terry Fleming and Robert Muller of the Narragansett Historical Society. There is no fee to attend, but please register on the Library's Events Page.

Rustic-chic private farm venue in scenic Stonington, CT 

Deans Mill Farm 

Built in the mid-1700s as a functioning livestock farm, Deans Mill Farm has gone through an evolution in recent decades. A full renovation of the historic buildings and rejuvenation of the surrounding 70+ acres has made the property into the incredible venue it is today. Deans Mill Farm now operates primarily as a private event space and five-room bed and breakfast tucked down a private road in Stonington, Connecticut. It shares its property with Dragonfly Equestrian Center and is home to dozens of horses. On the property lies meadows, hiking trails, beautiful fields and Dragonfly Disc Golf. The property can be rented for weddings, birthday parties and other special events. Additionally, the bed and breakfast can be rented by the room or reserved in its entirety for complete privacy. The Farm has the ability to host small private indoor events for up to 50 guests in the Farmhouse. Outdoor tented events are our specialty, with numerous locations on-site that are picturesque for your celebration. Outdoor tented celebrations can accommodate up to 250 guests.
