SUMMARY:Nick Bosse - Under the Stars
DESCRIPTION:Nick Bosse – Under the Stars brings live music\, springtime atmosphere\, and community fundraising together for a laid-back evening at The Charlestown Rathskeller on May 29. Doors open at 7 p.m. with music beginning at 8\, setting the stage for an outdoor night filled with acoustic energy\, conversation\, and the kind of relaxed Rhode Island nightlife that feels tailor-made for late May. Surrounded by trees\, open air\, and the Rathskeller’s famously casual vibe\, the event leans more intimate gathering than large-scale concert. \nNick Bosse – Under the Stars also serves a larger purpose beyond the music itself\, with proceeds benefiting WARM Center and its efforts to prevent and end homelessness in the local community. Every ticket sold helps support programs focused on stability\, housing assistance\, and resources for neighbors in need. The evening combines entertainment and fundraising in a way that feels personal and community-centered\, encouraging guests to enjoy themselves while directly contributing to a meaningful local cause. \nGuests can expect a relaxed social atmosphere with a cash bar and burger bar available throughout the night\, making it easy to settle in for an evening of food\, drinks\, and live music under the stars. Nick Bosse’s performance should fit naturally into the outdoor setting\, creating the kind of easygoing soundtrack that works perfectly for a spring night in Charlestown. For anyone looking for live music with a little more heart behind it\, this event offers a chance to enjoy a memorable night out while supporting an important mission at the same time. \n

SUMMARY:Frosty Drew Observatory and Science Center's Stargazing Nights
DESCRIPTION:Frosty Drew Observatory and Science Center’s Stargazing Nights turn a quiet Friday evening in Ninigret Park into one of the most atmospheric experiences in southern New England. Hosted by Frosty Drew Observatory & Science Center\, the weekly gathering invites visitors to explore the night sky through powerful telescopes while astronomers guide guests across planets\, star clusters\, distant galaxies\, and the glowing band of the Milky Way overhead. Under some of the darkest skies in Rhode Island\, the experience feels less like a formal science program and more like stumbling into a community of people quietly obsessed with the universe. \nAs darkness settles over Ninigret Park\, visitors can expect views that change depending on the season and sky conditions\, often including Saturn’s rings\, Jupiter’s moons\, the cratered surface of the Moon\, and deep space objects rarely visible in brighter suburban areas. The observatory’s Sky Theatre and telescope stations create an immersive environment where curious first-timers mingle with amateur astronomers and longtime stargazers. There’s something strangely calming about standing in near silence while strangers take turns peering into the cosmos\, especially on clear summer nights when the Milky Way stretches visibly across the sky. \nThe observatory typically opens around 8:30 p.m. on Friday nights and remains active through at least 10:30 p.m.\, sometimes later depending on weather and viewing conditions. Because the event is weather dependent\, updates are posted on the day of the event before 3 p.m. Organizers also note that Ninigret Park’s dark sky rules prohibit white light use after dusk in order to protect night vision and sensitive astronomical equipment\, giving the entire area an almost surreal glow of dim red lights and shadowy pathways. Tickets for Frosty Drew Observatory and Science Center’s Stargazing Nights can be purchased by clicking the event link below. \nWhen ticket sales open\, a link to purchase / acquire tickets will be added to the “Cost” field on the event page. Once event capacity is reached\, these fields will be listed as “Sold Out“\, and we will be unable to allow entry to any more guests. \nRules and Suggestions:\n• Guests should avoid using white flashlights\, phone flashlights\, or bright screens after dusk\n• Red light flashlights are encouraged to preserve night vision\n• Bug spray is highly recommended during warmer months due to mosquitoes and insects near the wildlife refuge\n• Weather conditions may affect visibility or event operations\n• Children ages 5 and older require tickets\n• Arriving early is recommended for the best viewing opportunities and parking access \n
