Outsider Collective is a community artist workspace and gallery located within the Hope Artiste’s Village in Pawtucket RI. Our founders, Carrie Hyde and Jessica Angelone created the OC to be a safe place where individuals of any artistic ability can come to create, learn, socialize, gain mentors, and build confidence through their art and creativity.
At the OC, we meet our Members at their own individual skill levels and we provide opportunities and a space to learn and grow as artists and as people. Our team consists of formally trained artists, educators, professionals and compassionate mentors whose passion is to encourage and promote creativity as a form of expression and communication. Through experience and training, we understand the needs of the amazing individuals of the I/DD community, which allows us an advantage in helping our Members grow into their best selves.
