  • Universal Penman NEWSLETTER of the PROVIDENCE ATHENÆUM
    Universal Penman NEWSLETTER OF THE PROVIDENCE ATHENÆUM MESSAGE FROM EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, “Listen! The wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves, ALISON MAXELL We have had our summer evenings, now for October eves!” Humbert Wolfe Ah, sweet Autumn - colorful foliage, crisp fall mornings, warm wool sweaters – my favorite time of the year. The shift in the seasons, the hint of promised change stirs my soul…and today I am grateful. This past spring you left us spellbound by your spirit and generosity – exceeding our Annual Fund expectations and sending us into the summer with promise and possibility. In early July we reviewed final recommendations from our consultancy and received news of Christina’s fellowship. Informed by both, we made the bold decision to suspend fall programming to enable board and staff to engage more deeply in the planning process – a strategic investment now of time and talent for the promise of a future filled with new possibility. By August, the Athenaeum became center stage - transforming from library to Hollywood set to construction site as members, tourists, artists, filmmakers, and contractors came and went. Suddenly, summer slipped by, students returned, a new semester began - the hustle and bustle of Benefit Street was back - fall had arrived. Inside the Athenaeum, leaves and crushed berries spot the carpets while the familiar scent of old books suggests you are home. Depending upon the day, Mary, Tina, Amy, Amanda, Kirsty, Kathleen, Stephanie or Morgan await your arrival, ready with the latest mystery, best seller, or biscuit (canines only)! Meanwhile, Mary Anne and Allen are upstairs ordering and cataloging the next batch of new books.

Cicilline October 2005 building on our strength Developing a 21st-Century Economy in the Character of Providence preface Introduction For several years, prominent national observers acclaimed Providence as a city with great potential. They praised our city’s unique character with its historic charm, lively cultural scene, educated workforce, and proximity to natural beauty. Unfortunately, potential wasn’t enough. Investors remained wary of an unpredictable regulatory environment and withheld their capital. Three years ago, Providence residents voted to change that. They gave me and my administration a mandate to bring honesty, predictability, and fiscal responsibility to City Hall.

  • City Walk Phase 2 Conceptual Review
    Staff Report: City Walk Phase 2 Conceptual Review –Upper South Providence, Lower South Providence, Elmwood – Wards 9, 10, 11 (For Action) Presented at February 20, 2019 BPAC meeting Project Background The City of Providence Department of Planning and Development seeks comments from the BPAC regarding the conceptual plans for Phase 2 of City Walk. The plans involve striping and signage improvements on Broad Street between Elmwood Ave and Hawthorne Ave. This will be a conceptual level review of the project and the first of two reviews by the Commission. The City has funding from the State Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) to complete a portion of City Walk, the vision to connect nine Providence neighborhoods to each other, to Roger Williams Park, and India Point Park by means of safe places to walk and to bike. The funded portion of the vision extends from the intersection of Clifford Street and Richmond Street downtown across I-95 to Broad Street, and south on Broad Street to Hawthorne Ave, which is the entrance to Roger Williams Park. That project is split into two phases, with Phase 1 extending from downtown to the intersections of Pine Street and Friendship Street with Broad Street, and Phase 2 consisting of Broad Street. The schedule for the two phases is for implementation of Phase 1 in 2019 and of Phase 2 in 2020. Throughout 2018, the City conducted public engagement to ask the community what the improvements on Broad Street should look like. These included two public meetings, the first to identify design preferences, challenges on Broad Street, and examples of potential options, and the second to take a closer look at design options.

  • This Bust Was Created in Honor of the Prominent Rhode Island Social and Political Figurehead, Judge John Pitman (1785-1864)
    George O. Annable, The Honorable John Pitman (c.1853). Marble, ​ ​ H.28in. Gift of the Friends of the Athenaeum, 1853. This bust was created in honor of the prominent Rhode Island social and political figurehead, Judge John Pitman (1785-1864). Judge Pitman secured the future of the ​ ​ Athenaeum, and inflated the growing importance of the arts in Providence, Rhode Island. A native of Providence, Rhode Island, Pitman was not only the Athenaeum’s first ​ ​ ​ ​ Board President, starting in 1836, but also its longest-serving one; he would not relinquish the position until 1856. Well before his presidency until well after leaving the Board, he also served as a United States District Court Judge for the District of Rhode Island, in Providence. Appointed by President James Madison in 1824, he remained on the bench until his death in 1864. Pitman was known throughout Providence as an important patron of the arts. While embracing the responsibility of leading the Athenaeum to further development, he also helped found the Rhode Island Art association from his office at the Athenaeum. In collecting works of interest and value to the Athenaeum, Pitman demanded that they collect “all works which may illustrate the truths and exhibit the progress of 1 science and the classics of literature.” He also stated that the Athenaeum was “no place for the exaggerated descriptions, the vicious sentiments and the varnished 2 impurities of modern fiction” Eventually Pitman’s attitude towards novels changed and they were added to the collection. Pitman helped shape the Athenaeums future in shaping its collection, and gaining members that helped keep the institution’s doors open (by advertising the lower price of the Providence Athenaeum than the Boston Athenaeum.) Pitman’s rather grand portrait is the work of Providence sculptor George Oliver Annable [American, 1829-1887].
