“Having a birthday party at the Creative Reuse Center for my 6 year old daughter was wonderful! We got to make two crafts—forever paper flowers and treasure boxes with jewels.

With two rooms, parking, and availability on the weekends it was by far the most affordable, flexible, sustainable and educational indoor children’s birthday option in the state of Rhode Island.

The CRC is a perfect place to turn on imaginations and turn off technology.

I highly recommend for all who are interested in a more creative and collaborative party atmosphere!”

Sage, Providence resident and mother of two
