RIC has long been known for its high-quality performing arts programs. Our dance company, many music ensembles, and four major theatre performances a year mean that there's always an event you should attend!
The RIC Dance Company is an innovative and widely recognized modern dance ensemble. For many years, the company’s hallmark has been its involvement with local, regional and national dance communities.
The quality of music education at RIC is second to none. For our students, the study of music takes place on stage as well as in the classroom. Enjoy our numerous ensembles: a chamber singer group, chorus, jazz band, symphony orchestra, wind ensemble, women's chorus, and many additional smaller performing arrangements.
Each year many of our theatre students work alongside actors, directors, and managers from companies such as the Trinity Repertory Company and Looking Glass Theatre. Rhode Island College stages four major productions annually, giving you an excellent chance to see the performance and technical talents of our students.
Our Bannister Gallery presents exhibitions by local, regional and international artists. Open to the public Monday–Friday, 12–8 pm whenever exhibitions are on view, we hope you'll visit!
If you're looking to host an event, the RIC campus offers many ideal spaces that are wonderful for gatherings of various sizes and with differing needs and specifications. Let us help you select an appropriate campus facility and assist with planning, promoting and catering your event.

The trees growing on our 180-acres are a splendid resource - so much so that the campus was recently recognized as an accredited arboretum. Take a walk amongst the 1100+ individual trees (over 80 different species and varieties) and enjoy.
