Did you know that the Cranston Public Library (most, if not, all libraries actually) offers a program to those with a libarary card which offers free or discounted admission into these museums?
It's true! In fact, Melissa and I visited the RISD museum in January and also check
ed out the Providence Children's Museum when her brothers and nephew were visiting earlier this month.
The RISD Museum also offers free admission on the last Saturday of the month, as well as many other cool programs for kids. We spent an entire afternoon there. Our favorite exhibits were the Egyptian galleries, which featured the coffin and mummy of priest Nesmin, the Asian textiles gallery, and the gallery which housed only a 9 foot Buddha! We also read that there will be an exhibit in April that features the work of famous Seattle glass artist Dale Chihuly. This is definitely on our to-do-list.
The Providence Children's Museum February calendar is full of fun activities. It's a great way to spend an afternoon. I might suggest getting there early on a weekend or trying a weekday. It can get pretty crowded!
Have you checked out your local library lately?

Attention to detail, building personal relationships and hard work are part of my philosophy as a Real Estate professional. Call me to put these beliefs to work for you. 401.942.0200 ext 28
As a professional Realtor, I subscribe to the old adage, "If you love what you do, you never work a day in your life". It's this passion for what I do that translates into a successful home buying or selling experience for my clients. Having more than 17 years of overall sales experience has sharpened my sense of what my clients have come to expect and deserve. As an award winning sales executive, I have learned that it's the details that matter and I will go above and beyond to provide unbeatable service to every one of my clients.
Having been born and raised in Rhode Island, I'm aware of the intricacies and local details that set each area of the state apart. I'm an avid fan of the history of Rhode Island and its communities. My blog, Living in Rhode Island, is an inside look at what our great state has to offer. From Newport to Woonsocket and everything in between, I write about weekend happenings, upcoming events, restaurants, local stories and places of interest. Rest assured, if it's about Rhody... I'm talking about it. My clients can easily keep up to date with what's going on -- not only in RI, but in real estate, by visiting my website. I look forward to hearing from you.
I am a member of the Greater Providence Board of Realtors, Rhode Island Statewide MLS, the Rhode Island Association of Realtors, the National Association of Realtors as well as an e-Pro certified expert. I utilize the latest in technology in order to provide you with every tool possible to achieve your goals.
My free time is usually spent with my wife Melissa out on the hiking trail (weather permitting of course) or at a local art festival, farmer's market or museum. I can also be found at the Rhode Island Blood Center making my monthly double platelet and plasma donation. To say that I'm a sports fan is an understatement. Not only do I love the Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics and Bruins - I'm a bit of a weekend warrior, and have the injuries to prove it.

Your Friend in Rhode Island Real Estate
"Dear Bob,
My parents were new to the area and did not initially have a clear idea in which town they wanted to buy a home. You were very helpful in identifying good towns and neighborhood for them to consider. After they focused on a couple of neighborhoods, you spent a lot of time identifying specific houses that would meet their criteria and budget and guiding them through placing an offer that was accepted. We all feel that they got a great deal on the home they purchased. When most realtors would have been done, you continued to help them by suggesting vendors in their new town to help with various projects they wanted to do before moving in to their new home.
Thank you again for everything you did. It sure took a load off of our minds, knowing that you were there to help them through the process. We will definitely recommend you to everyone we know.
Regards,
Jody and Erik Saarmaa"
"Bob,
I just wanted to say thanks again for all that you've done for me and my family. You've basically taken our life to the next level with all the amenities we could ever ask for!! Your hard work, dedication and persistence paid off for us more than we ever expected, not only did we get a new home, we also have a great friend that during these past few months has sort of become part of the family. I can't say thank you enough for all that you've done for us. We look forward to seeing you at the housewarming party. Thanks again!!

"I hired Bob in a buyer's broker capacity when I decided to look for an investment property. Bob immediately went to work, forwarding leads, and viewing houses at my convenience. Within a 1 month timeframe I had found and closed on a property that met my requirements. During the process, Bob went out of his way to view the property with me several times and expedited the closure date to meet my needs. In addition, Bob was extremely responsive in finding the answers to my various questions about the property and negotiating a purchase price on my behalf. I look forward to working with Bob in the future on the purchase/sale of additional real estate and highly recommend Bob for representation in a Buyer/Selling Broker capacity.
Sincerely, Steve Neri "
