WARWICK, RI — This Warwick Weekend events roundup features Library music, a summer market at Crowne Plaza, WCFA’s Human Nature art, food trucks and the farmers market.
The Gaspee Day Arts and Crafts festival is arguably the biggest local event going this weekend, running for three days as locals have come to expect on Memorial Day weekend. The event has been drawing record numbers of vendors and usually draws more that 50,000 people. The festival boasts more than 100 artisans and food vendors, music and kids attractions, arrayed along the closed off stretch of Narragansett Parkway between Warwick and Pawtuxet Village in Cranston.
