Riverside was honored to share our artists’ talents at the Annual DDS Commissioner’s Meeting last week where DDS leadership from across the Commonwealth met in Devens, MA.

Ashley, a Riverside Arts participant, was on-site to showcase and sell her hand-made earrings. DDS Commissioner, Sarah Peterson, purchased a pair making Ashley glow with pride. At the end of the day Ashley shared, “It felt wonderful to have so many people buy my earrings. This was a great day!”

Things at Riverside that just make sense....

Riverside's building at One Cottage Street has been keeping a careful watch over the Nashawannuck Pond, Mt. Tom, and the City of Easthampton since 1888. Throughout the upcoming year, we're planning to uncover bits and pieces of the history that is preserved within and outside the walls of the mill property we call home. We also plan to highlight some of the unique ways we interact with our building on a daily basis... that only make sense at Riverside! We can't wait to share these hidden gems with you.
