Warwick Center for the Arts

Join local poet Hannah Little for a workshop exploring the Abundance Mindset using poetry, storytelling, and creative expression.The Abundance Mindset is drawn in contrast to the Scarcity Mindset. In scarcity, we believe there aren't enough resources, worthiness, opportunities, time, etc. for us and/or everyone around us. We tend to focus on worry, comparison, and competition. We feel like a victim. With an abundance mindset, we shift to have agency in&nbsp;our own lives. We are more capable of generosity, collaboration, and finding calm. In short: a Scarcity Mindset is constrictive, while an Abundance Mindset is expansive. Admission is $15 for WCFA members, $20 for non-members. Register on the <a href="https://warwickcfa.org/calendar-of-events/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">WCFA website</a>&nbsp;to reserve your&nbsp;seat today.

Participants will wind through the historic heart of Wickford Village, enjoying beautiful waterfront views and colonial charm along the way. All registered participants will receive excellent race swag, including an official event t-shirt and a custom finisher medal.
Immediately following the race, the celebration shifts gears into a lively, family-friendly German Festival. Attendees can look forward to an authentic celebration featuring a festive local beer garden and grilled bratwurst served up directly by the VFW crew.

KENNETH COTE @ Shimmer Salon and Day Spa - 401-336-3700

After owning and operating Kenneth Cote' Salon at 333 Main Street for more than 40 years, I am proud to announce that I have joined the Shimmer Salon &amp; Day Spa team at 500 Main Street in East Greenwich, Rhode Island. Following a series of surgeries and recoveries, along with the loss of my longtime administrative coordinator and dear friend, Richard Bump, I found myself at a point of reflection and transition. I made the decision to redirect my career from salon ownership toward something that has always been at the center of who I am: continuing to cultivate my craft as a Hair Artist and educator. As I return to Main Street, my intention is simple: to reconnect with the skills, creativity, and level of care that built my reputation over decades, while offering you the opportunity to reimagine the experience and quality I can bring to your sense of style. I have always taken pride in helping clients leave with a greater understanding of their hair than when they first sat in my chair. Hair has never simply been about appearance; it has always been about connection, education, and trust. After years of experience, one thing remains unchanged: every service begins with a pair of ears before a pair of shears. Life has brought its share of challenges over recent years — personal loss, physical setbacks, and significant change. Those experiences have reshaped me, but they have also clarified something important: I am returning to the place where I truly belong. After nearly five decades in this industry, I am not stepping backward into who I once was; I am stepping forward as who I am today — a distilled version of those years of experience, with greater focus, stronger purpose, and a deeper appreciation for what matters most. I look forward to reconnecting with familiar faces, welcoming new ones, and beginning this next chapter together. — Kenneth Cote'
