Give Newport Another Look
Newport has a history of flashy, big-city lights, but is deeply rooted in its community, the businesses, and neighborhoods that make it up. Over the last few years, a creative presence has grown in the city from Monmouth to York, and several places in between. Orchard St. is a common artery that connects them all. Embracing this alley, flooding it with light, art, murals, and people is the perfect way to create community.

So, how can you help?
This is a passion project started by the Dye Brothers, Ron Pies, and Josh Tunning. It is completely not-for-profit and all proceeds go to the artists. We operate through the 501c-3 of ReNewport with the goal of raising up the the Newport creative scene to the level it deserves. So far all of our funding has come from grants, but we'd love to open this up to the public and ask for your help as well. Just know that your money will go to the artists 100% and the impact will be paid forward on the community in spades.
