Field Trips
The Steel Yard
27 Sims Avenue Providence, RI
Take a guided tour of The Steet Yard. The Steel Yard was founded in 2001 by two RISD & Brown grads who purchased the former Providence Steel and Iron (PS&I) complex in the hopes of creating a new space for artists to gather and practice age-old trades of metalsmithing and more. The founders, fellow artists and community members built a non-profit around the idea of connecting people to how things are made and teaching them about process.
Today, the Steel Yard is a reclaimed urban landscape that represents the neighborhood’s industrial history while also offering a campus for industrial arts education, workforce training, and small-scale manufacturing. In addition, the Steel Yard is a lead partner in the intentional reclamation of Providence's "Industrial Valley" and serves as a modern, publicly accessible, de facto park. Free. Sign up by August 10. |
