A Message to the Residents and Taxpayers of the City of Pawtucket Dear Friends and Neighbors, Once again, we say goodbye to the old year and welcome in the new. As we start 2015, my family and I would like to wish you nothing but the best for this upcoming year. A new year always gives us the opportunity to reflect on the past; dream of the future and this year should be no different. As I start my third term as your mayor, I would like to take a look back over the past few years to highlight some of the City’s accomplishments and a look forward to give you some insight into what I see for the future of our city. In January of 2010 Pawtucket was a city in crisis, on the brink of a state takeover and financial bankruptcy. My administration rolled up its sleeves and went to work. Tough choices were made at all levels of our city government based on what were the right things to do for the taxpayers and residents of our city. After four years in office, I was extremely pleased when Fitch’s Investment Service raised the City’s bond rating two notches in late 2014, reaffirming the steps we have taken to bring Pawtucket back from financial crisis are working. Best of all, we were able to accomplish this with no tax increases on either residents or businesses for the past two years. We are also seeing major improvements to the infrastructure of our city. An aggressive, ongoing road-paving program, which has seen more miles of road repaved than has been seen in a decade, is making it a lot easier to get around in Pawtucket. In addition, thanks to voters who passed all of the bond referenda this past November, we will be making some important infrastructure improvements to our schools, parks, roads, public buildings and bridges during the next two years. All of these improvements are targeted toward improving the quality of life of our residents, while building a strong foundation for future growth as we continue to build our bridge to progress. My administration continues to aggressively seek out new businesses to move to our city, bringing with them much needed tax revenues and the opportunity for Mayor Donald R. Grebien jobs for our residents. We are proud to welcome Pet Food Experts to our business community as they move their corporate headquarters and over 100 jobs to Pawtucket’s downtown. I continue to make site visits to Pawtucket businesses to hear first-hand how my administration can help them continue to thrive and hopefully expand here in the city. It is my hope in 2015 to see movement on the long idled riverfront property on Division Street as we work with our private sector partners to ensure that the development is a gem for our riverfront and provides public access. I stand committed to moving forward and promoting economic growth and job creation, which I find to be the lifeblood of any city. Thanks to our generous sponsors, I am once again pleased to present you with the annual city calendar. You will find a wealth of information on scheduled events, information on your local officials and the many services available to you. I urge you to visit these sponsors and to thank them for their commitment to the calendar and our city. Throughout this calendar you will find photos from the general public as well as school children from many of the fifth grade classes throughout the Pawtucket School System. The theme for this year’s calendar is “Coloring Pawtucket.” My wish for you in 2015 is that you and your family have a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. More importantly though, I want you to be proud of the city that we all call home. Pawtucket is back, Pawtucket is strong, Pawtucket is proud – Pawtucket Proud! Sincerely, 2015 Cover Photo: Congratulations to Trinity Barata, who was a 5th grade student at Potter-Burns School at the time of this contest. Her winning photo was selected by Mayor Donald R.

Pawtucket is not only an outstanding community in which to live and work but also a great place to play and to be entertained. From Chinese dragon boats to championship Triple-A baseball, handcrafted jewelry exhibitors to live music in numerous genres, plus historical attractions, three critically acclaimed theater companies and top-notch recreational facilities, Pawtucket’s your ticket for a day of fun or a night on the town. There’s also year-round ice skating at the Blackstone Valley Sports Center, 25 Andrew Ferland Way, eye-opening exhibitions at the Rhode Island Water Color Society in Slater Memorial Park on Newport Avenue, where its 435 acres also offer a great place to take a stroll. In addition the new Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame at Hope Artiste Village was recently named the “Top Museum Worth Traveling For” in Rhode Island. Or you can satisfy your palate at one of the city’s many fine restaurants, from vegetarian and numerous ethnic varieties to down-home cooking at a historic diner. The enjoyment is here, all year round, just waiting for you and the whole family to enjoy. The city’s annual marquee event is the Pawtucket Arts Festival, which holds sway in the downtown and Festival Pier riverfront areas for three weeks every September, with a dizzying array of events, most at no charge and also with free parking. Building on a Proud History of Innovation Discover how a young industrialist who left England to launch a water-powered cotton mill in Pawtucket changed the world forever. More than 200 years ago, Samuel Slater had an idea. He built a wooden clapboard structure the size of a large garage and installed some machinery. Then he tapped the hydropower of both the Blackstone River and Pawtucket Falls. The result: For the first time in this country, cotton thread was spun by machine instead of by hand. Slater Mill at 67 Roosevelt Avenue (www.slatermill.org), a museum complex, offers a fascinating tribute to Samuel Slater and the industrial innovations he began in America. You will get an authentic glimpse of life in a 19th century industrial village, with guides and re-enactors in traditional garb. Touring Slater Mill will bring you back to the early 1800s. At the adjacent Sylvanus Brown House (1758), you can witness demonstrations of hand spinning and weaving or watch a 16,000 lb. water wheel – the only one of its kind in the country – power the machine shop in the 1810 Wilkinson Mill. You can also enjoy exhibits of 19th and 20th century machinery, plus actual productions from an early textile factory, and relive the evolution from handcrafting to machine production. Just a couple of miles down the road, tour the Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame at 1005 Main Street (www.rhodeislandmusichalloffame.com) in the vast Hope Artiste Village mill complex with its dozens of resident artisans, designers and entrepreneurs to see informative inductee exhibits celebrating Rhode Island’s great musical heritage. Notable among the 2014 inductees is Pawtucket’s own Duke Robillard. The attraction was recently named the Ocean State’s “Top Museum Worth Traveling For” by www.flipkey.com, a vacation-rental website that’s part of the travel site TripAdvisor. While you’re at Hope Artiste Village, be sure to stop by New Harvest Coffee Roasters, where roaster Eric Lepine was recently named a winner of the 2014 Coastal New England Rising Stars Award from StarChefs.com. Arts and Entertainment District Pay no sales tax on original artwork produced and sold by hundreds of Pawtucket’s artists in their own studios or showcased in the city’s numerous art galleries. More than 60 Pawtucket streets are located within this 307-acre zone, which wraps itself around the historic Slater Mill site and the downtown area. Or take a short hop to the Rhode Island Antiques Mall at 345 Fountain Street, visible from I-95, which twice Oscar-nominated, Rhode Island-born actor and antiques aficionado James Woods has been known to frequent. The Pawtucket Arts District features art studios and artists in every form, often in renovated commercial buildings and mills: printmakers, glass blowers, silversmiths, visual artists, graphic designers, leather workers, jewelry designers, photographers, screen printers, dance studios and others. Artists known the world over have their workplaces in Pawtucket. Some of the city’s famous artists include glass artist Howard Ben Tré, interior designer Morris Nathanson and Gretchen Dow Simpson, whose work has graced 58 covers of The New Yorker magazine. Pawtucket Arts Festival Each September the Pawtucket Arts Festival (www.pawtucketartsfestival.org), with the 17th annual event on tap this year, features hundreds of artists showcasing their arts and crafts, along with dozens of other attractions highlighting the visual, musical and performing arts. A photography contest, film festival, juried art show and open studios tours of artist live/work spaces in mills throughout the city, along with plays performed by local theaters, are among the many offerings. Almost every color of the musical rainbow can be heard, including salsa, jazz, zydeco, doo-wop, blues, Irish, folk, pop and classical. The opening weekend of the festival brings thousands of spectators to Festival Pier for the Rhode Island Chinese Dragon Boat Races & Taiwan Day Festival, featuring spirited races on the Pawtucket River and folk dancing and traditional music along the pier. The festival’s crowning event each year is the always much anticipated appearance of the Rhode Island Philharmonic Pops Orchestra performing their Pops in the Park concert at Slater Memorial Park, capped by a dazzling fireworks display. On the Waterfront Enjoy recreational water activities at the city’s boat ramp, dock and fishing areas below the Division Street Bridge. You can launch your small boat and make your way down river to beautiful Narragansett Bay. The city has upgraded the Festival Pier area for the enjoyment of residents and guests alike. In Pawtucket’s downtown there’s the Riverfront Summer Concert Series, which features great music every Sunday during the summer. Blues, swing, jazz and Dixieland fill the air at the Veterans Memorial Amphitheatre next to the City Hall complex on Exchange Street. The Slater Park Summer Concert Series brightens the summer season, including a wealth of programming geared towards children and families. Slater Mill Historic Site, Downtown Pawtucket Photo Credit: Lori Urso Full Recreational Facilities Slater Memorial Park is much more than a venue for music or a leisurely walk. The park features tennis and basketball courts, a bike path, fishing, picnic sites, paddle boats, a dog park, plus a very special attraction: the Charles I. D. Looff Carousel, the oldest stander carousel in the world. Across from the carousel, enjoy the creative exhibits at the Rhode Island Water Color Society. Be sure to stroll over to the nearby Daggett House, the oldest house in Pawtucket and one of the oldest remaining buildings in Rhode Island. Constructed in 1685, the house is furnished with period antiquities, including needlework, Colonial pewter used during the Revolutionary War and china owned by the family of General Nathanael Greene. On Center Stage Musical comedies, Shakespeare and dramas presented just “as you like it” are performed by three resident Pawtucket theater troupes. The Sandra Feinstein-Gamm Theatre (www.gammtheatre.org), 172 Exchange Street, describes its mission as creating “the finest of live theater, engaging the audience intensely in current and recurrent issues of consequence.” The Community Players (www.thecommunityplayers.org), established in 1921 and the oldest community theater group in Rhode Island, fills the seats at the Joseph Jenks Junior High School auditorium at 350 Division Street, across from McCoy Stadium. Founded in 1984 and relocated to Pawtucket in 2003. Since its founding in 2000 by Ricardo and Bernadet Pitts-Wiley, Mixed Magic Theatre (www.mmtri.com), newly relocated to 560 Mineral Spring Avenue, has brought diverse stories to the stage through words and song from well-known dramas to original productions. Live music, as it has for decades, continues to find a welcome home in Pawtucket. Stone Soup Coffeehouse, one of New England’s oldest coffee houses, brings nationally recognized folk singers into the community hall at St. Paul’s Church, 50 Park Place. Come listen to the contemporary music at The Met, 1005 Main Street, or visit Machines with Magnets, 400 Main Street, Doherty’s East Avenue Irish Pub, 340 East Avenue, the News Café, 43 Broad Street, and the German American Cultural Society of RI, 78 Carter Avenue, for just a sampling of the city’s live music venues. For an entertaining visit of a different kind, the Pawtucket Armory Arts Center LLC, 172 Exchange Street (adjacent The Gamm Theatre), has been transformed into a community meeting place. Once a year the Foundry Artists Association hosts their December holiday sale of unique arts and crafts, and the Pawtucket Open Market Place draws thousands of shoppers into the city’s historic downtown. The historic Pawtucket Armory building, built in 1894 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, also has office space for cultural nonprofits.

From November to May, Pawtucket becomes a destination for garden-fresh produce and other goods from local farmers at the Farm Fresh Rhode Island’s Winter Farmer’s Market at Hope Artiste Village, 1005 Main Street. In summer this farmer’s market moves to Slater Memorial Park. For details, go to www.farmfreshri.org. Community-Sponsored Activities An array of community-sponsored activities, from the Pawtucket Fireworks Committee’s July 3rd pyrotechnics extravaganza at McCoy Stadium to colorful ethnic festivals (Portuguese, Colombian, Greek, Chinese and German), are held annually in Pawtucket. There is also the city’s 32-year-old St. Patrick’s Parade, which steps off on the first Saturday in March to assure participation by some of the major Irish marching bands in the region and the inspiring sounds of their kilted bagpipers. Topping off each year is Pawtucket’s Winter Wonderland spectacular in Slater Memorial Park in December. You can stroll through a Victorian village consisting of buildings surrounded by hundreds of decorated Christmas trees or revel in the special holiday spirit of carolers, bell ringers, clowns, puppeteers and musicians. Youngsters can also have their pictures taken with Santa and enjoy a hay wagon ride. For more details about what’s happening in Pawtucket, go to www.experiencepawtucket. org.
