Accommodations

We are 30-40 minutes from T.F. Green Airport, Providence, R.I.

We encourage students to rent cars or to drive so that they have transportation in the evenings to visit and enjoy the East Bay and the grandeur of Newport, which is only a short distance away.
Students must make their own arrangements for room, meals, and transportation.
If staying in town and need a ride to and from the studio, something can probably be arranged.
