Shop Small at the Mall at Rhode Island’s Newest Vendor Village

The summertime marketplace offers a chance to shop from more than forty local businesses in one place.

Visitors can encounter handcrafted goods and exclusive specialty products at the Rhode Island Small Business Village, a new retail market at Providence Place presented by Skills for Rhode Island’s Future and Centreville Bank.

The curated retail marketplace is designed to increase the sustainability of small businesses and allow for organic connections with new customers. The village officially launched in June at a ceremony attended by community partners, entrepreneurs and Rhode Island leaders.
