Artists
We'd like to extend a warm welcome to our talented visiting artists—whether you're new to the Wickford Art Festival or a long-time veteran. Since you're the backbone of the festival, we want to make it easy for you to be successful. And that means helping you cut down on expenses by offering accomodations with a generous local host.

North Kingstown has a vibrant arts community, brought together by the Wickford Art Association, producing the festival for 56 years. During that time our local art-lovers have been supporting the festival and the artists who travel here to participate.

Now we're going one step further—we're offering our guest rooms  and our in-law apartments to our talented traveling guests. Stay with a local host and make a friend while you're enjoying your weekend in the Ocean State.
