What We Do is a new, student-run, RISD event designed to bridge departmental gaps and create new connections through the sharing of ideas.

On Saturday, April 11th, 100 members of the RISD community (students, faculty, staff, and alums) will share something that they do with the rest of the RISD community and the larger surrounding community of Providence. 

Leading up to the day of the event, 8 site-specific “spaces” will be created by members of every department at RISD; majors paired up to encourage cross-departmental collaboration. The spaces that they build will house the day’s events creating a street-fair environment for the open sharing of how people at RISD spend their time and energy. 

What we do might include studio work, performance pieces, what you did last summer; anything and everything that RISD does in any manner of presentation.

The day will be jam-packed with odd and interesting things to experience so everything will be recorded and published on this website so that everyone can see what we do.
