257 Thayer Provides Brown University Students The Living Experience They Deserve.

Meet Rafi

Nick Bibby, renowned wildlife sculptor and RISD graduate, created “Rafi”, an Indian rhino, who will reside at 257 Thayer’s community room. Help him feel at home with a strong RISD student presence in our community. We have also commissioned Forbes 30 Under (Art and Style) honoree and Society of Illustrators NY Gold Medalist Victo Ngai, a NY based illustrator from Hong Kong, who graduated from Rhode Island School of Design, to create the custom illustration pictured below. An original illustration will also hang in the lobby of 257 Thayer when completed. We take pride in being able to showcase these pieces in our new community and know they will enhance your living experience.

Study rooms and multi-purpose studios

Reserve one of our study room’s for every day studying or special projects. You can transform one of these rooms into your personal studio for the day! We will have basic art supplies, easels, and drop clothes for your use. All you need is your personal ID to reserve the supplies you need from our office for the day.

Creative freedom with your living space

Historic houses and on-campus dorms can have strict decorating regulations. Experience creative freedom in your new apartment at 257 Thayer. Paint your walls, hang artwork, and bring accent pieces to create your perfect space. Some limitations do apply, please refer to your lease document for a full list of acceptable modifications.

Highlight your creative work in our community

Each month we will feature a resident and their artistic work. You can submit a sample and statement at the office regarding why you should be chosen. When you are chosen, we will feature your work for the duration of one month in our community. We will also highlight your talents on our Website’s featured blog, and you can set up a specific table at our community event for increased exposure.

Featured art events in our community

We want to enrich your living experience by providing resident events catered towards your interest. We will have a vast range of residents events based on your suggestions to our office and via social media. These will include but are not limited to: open mic nights, art showcases, and a “restaurant week” highlighting your favorite restaurants in town.
