Rhodes on the Pawtuxet, a historic landmark in Cranston since 1872, has long been a gathering place for music, dance, and community along the Pawtuxet River. Rebuilt in 1915 after a devastating fire, the grand ballroom—with its soaring ceilings, elegant hardwood floors, and timeless architecture—has hosted legendary performers and countless celebrations. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Rhodes continues to honor its legacy as a cultural hub, making it a truly inspiring venue for this year's orchestra concert.

The Ocean State Pops Orchestra looks forward to welcoming you to this special evening featuring great music, community spirit, and the beauty of summer in one of Rhode Island’s most iconic venues.
