about LAUNCH
www.launchatgailcahalangallery.com/
The Launch Gallery, situated at Conley's Wharf/Providence Piers, is a program designed by Andrea Valentini, to bridge RISD students and recent graduates with the local community as an initial public viewing.

Named specifically for its port side location, Launch features the work of RISD students from all disciplines of fine art and design and is intended to transition pre graduating and post graduate student work from campus to community. A percentage of sales from the gallery will be donated toward a RISD scholarship fund for Rhode Island high school students.
