🌷The Hive RI’s Weekly BUZZ! 🐝
We still have an OFFICE available in The Hive & two in the mill!
Our mill community features over 100 businesses & professionals! Featured picture above is of Herbs & Mylk, located centrally on the main floor of the Rodman Building. Jeanette & her team are winners of ‘Best of RI, from RI Monthly’ and are wonderful members of our community. Buy online, shop in their lovely store or find them at local markets & retail outlets!
May event at The Hive RI: Please join us on Tuesday, May 9th at noon as we shine a Spotlight on DEI: Shedding light on how Festival Ballet Providence is working to transform the art of ballet for a modern audience through DEI actions. Valerie Cookson-Botto, Director of Community Engagement will discuss how barriers from ballet’s history are being transformed at Festival Ballet Providence to evolve the art form into one that is more reflective of a diverse, equitable and inclusive society. She will discuss the journey from acknowledging the past and identifying barriers to building bridges for transformation. And, Jennifer Lima will bring a local look into DEI initiatives in North Kingstown and the results of the recent equity audit. Bring your stories about how DEI is transforming your business decisions and questions about pathways forward for a brighter future. ***To register or for more information, click here.
Office available in The Hive & two in the Rodman Building! One of the offices in The Hive is still available & two are available in the Rodman Building.
The Hive office is approximately 10’X11′ and is private and lockable but because The Hive is in the old boiler room (yes, there was a Corliss System here) our ceilings are very high so there isn’t sound privacy but they are lockable and private. We have office furniture if you need it but you’re also welcome to make it beautiful and your own. We also have two offices upstairs in the Rodman Building – one is a suite and is on the main floor, the other is a cool larger office with high ceilings on the top floor right next to the common ‘waiting’ area.
Interested? 
Please reach out to me at tunischartner@gmail.com or to Mike Baker at advanprop@aol.com or call him at 401-255-7413. You can also just respond to this email! The Hive office is $350 per month and only requires a ‘last month’ deposit so is really month to month. The other offices require a lease of a year or more but Mike can work with you on that. We have a break room in The Hive with a full sized refrigerator/freezer, a microwave and we provide coffee/tea. The Hive’s breakroom is available to Hive coworking and office members, but it is also there for any of our mill community office tenants. As you know from these emails, we have monthly events including art shows, a waterfall right outside our door and there are miles and miles of walking/biking/running trails in Ryan Park right behind us!
It is really a great place to work, come join us!
