Ch-ch-ch-changes!

Hi all! As you may have noticed, this website needs to undergo some changes to get up to speed with a bunch of new businesses here in Warren, our great new walking maps, and lots of other changes. Our fabulous graphic designer, Laura of www.atelierlks.com is on the job, along with our new photographer, Warren resident Michael Cevoli www.michaelcevoli.com. Check out their portfolios–we couldn’t work with better, more talented individuals. Thanks Laura and Mike!

As the site gets updated, you can still visit this blog for news and updates about what’s new in Warren thanks to our new writers: Annabelle Everett, Eric Mancini, and Kristen Aber. Their fresh perspectives on Warren and the goings-on in town will be just what we need to liven up this page. You can also follow us on Instagram @discoverwarren, Facebook at fb.com/DiscoverWarren, and Twitter @DiscoverWarren.

Big news this summer: the Hometown Revival Project is launching Music & Movies in the Park! For a complete schedule, check out www.warrenrevival.org and their Facebook page at fb.com/warrenrevival
First up is Raiders of the Lost Ark next Thursday, 6/26. It will start around sunset, but stay tuned for more information.

You can check out the enthusiastic video here.

In the video, owner Sam and Chef Jeremy break down their favorite dishes; we dare you not to head there tonight after watching gooey Southern mac n’ cheese ooze over their Mac n’ Cheeseburger. Grab a craft beer or Manhattan at the bar and cozy up to some comfort food.

Warren Walkabout Map!

Our map is up! Hard copies will be available tomorrow, but in the meantime you can browse all the open artist studios, shops, and restaurants by viewing the PDF here:

Walkabout 2013 Map

Check out a partial listing of live music and special events here: Map Cover — but remember, this is only a fraction of what’s offered around town… most shops, studios, and galleries are offering specials, treats, sales, and other fun stuff that we can’t possibly fit onto one page. Be sure to follow us on Facebook for a live feed of fun stuff going on throughout the day.

The trolley is free, free parking is available on-street, at municipal lots, and at the Franklin Street Park & Ride, and everyone is open at noon sharp! See you soon!
