RIRhode Island field entry
Gather Glass + Gather Café
Providence, RI
An Atwells Avenue pairing where handmade glass retail and a working glassblowing studio sit beside a small-batch ice-cream café, joined visually by a full glass wall that lets café visitors watch the hot shop.
Gather combines glass art, a working studio, classes and custom work with an adjoining small-batch ice-cream café built around views into the hot shop.
Field notes
Why it belongs
Handmade glass gallery, active hot shop, glass classes and demonstrations joined through a viewing wall to a small-batch ice-cream café and classes.
Visitors can shop finished glass art, see the working studio, book making experiences and eat house-made ice cream while looking directly into the hot shop.
Gather Glass at 521 Atwells Avenue is a working glassblowing studio and gallery selling handmade work, custom pieces and memorial art while hosting demonstrations and classes. The adjoining Gather Café at 519 Atwells serves small-batch ice cream and offers ice-cream classes; a full glass wall connects the café experience to live work in the studio. The two neighboring components form one visitor destination for this profile. Gather Farm in Johnston is a separate property and receives no marker, image, hours or independent listing here.
