Newport’s most Instagrammable art installation i Newport’s most Instagrammable art installation is back—and this time, it’s tripping in technicolor. Now in its third year, Umbrella Sky Newport has once again transformed the Brick Market’s Goddard Row into a kaleidoscopic dreamscape, and 2025’s theme is a love letter to the ‘70s—with a decidedly modern twist. Artist Halit Benli has reimagined the free-spirited era through over 450 floating umbrellas, each splashed with tie-dye-inspired patterns that pulse with movement, color, and emotion. It’s hippie chic meets digital-age whimsy—a canopy of psychedelic optimism suspended in midair, casting prismatic shadows and drawing selfie-takers like moths to a groovy flame. But this isn’t just a feast for the eyes. Every Saturday and Sunday, the air will be filled with live music from local artists, creating a multisensory experience that invites you to slow down, look up, and tune in. Running through the end of October, Umbrella Sky is more than an art installation—it’s a moment. A place where creativity hangs above you, community gathers beneath you, and nostalgia swirls all around you. So grab your sunnies, channel your inner flower child, and make your way to Goddard Row. The sky is, quite literally, the art. #UmbrellaSkyNewport #newportri #newportbuzz

In a big shake-up for Rhode Island’s cannabis la In a big shake-up for Rhode Island’s cannabis landscape, local entrepreneur Octavius Prince has officially taken over the Greenleaf Compassion Center and relaunched it under a new name and vision — Newport Cannabis Company (@newportcannaco). Prince, a fifth-generation Newporter, is no stranger to the industry. He’s the founder of Hangar 420, Rhode Island’s leading cultivator, and has built a strong reputation for quality and consistency since adult-use sales launched in late 2022. His journey into the field started with a personal story: seeing how the plant helped a loved one during a serious illness. “It became clear this plant had real power — not just medically, but emotionally and spiritually,” he said. “That’s why I started Hangar 420, and that’s why I’m bringing that same energy and commitment to Newport Cannabis Company.” The new vision? To revitalize a once-bustling space and create something rooted in local values. “This isn’t just a rebrand — it’s a full reset,” Prince said. “We’re revamping the experience, retraining staff, and building something that reflects the needs of this community.” He added, “For too long, island residents have had to go elsewhere to find what they were looking for. That ends now.” Newport Cannabis Company is officially open — built by a Newporter, for Rhode Islanders. Head to newportcanna.com 1637 W.
