Olneyville Gallery and Small Event Space

Welcome to Inspiria, a brand-new art gallery and performance space in the culturally rich neighborhood of Olneyville in Providence RI. Each month unveils a fresh residency with diverse visual artists and experiences. From wild debut nights to intimate artist talks, art classes, live music, fashion shows, and immersive late-night theater, our gallery is a vibrant hub that welcomes creatives and explorers from all walks of life. Operated by artists, for artists, we offer transformative experiences for all who come to play in our enchanting black space. Inspiria is a sanctuary for the bimbos, the gays, the noisemakers, the revolutionaries, and the weirdos. We are anti-gallery in practice, striving to crush red-tape elitism that robs our most creative communities of opportunities to showcase and celebrate their work. We take an unorthodox approach to running our venue by being unabashedly high femme and DIY. We believe that being truly punk is to have a root in acts of care, from feeding each other to stocking up on harm reduction supplies, making decisions that ensure all artists get paid, and prioritizing collaboration over competition. While we know that the concept of safety is up to the individual, we are dedicated to instilling a haven for our community with inclusive vibes, tasty treats, and a cozy atmosphere.
