Clambake is a gathering for designers, creatives, and those who like design and want to know more. It’s a time to get together, network, and hear about some of the cool new design work that is happening in RI. Two presenters from two different design disciplines present each month. Presentations are generally 15 minutes followed by Q&A.
Since 2018, Clambake has been traveling around RI. Are there any designers/creatives in RI you’d like to nominate to be a Clambake speaker? Any cool spaces in RI we should host a Clambake? Let us know!
In January, we’re at Sprout Coworking in Providence. As Sprout’s visitors, we can access any of the four Rising Sun Mills campus parking lots around the building. There are many street parking available as well.
See the work of our speakers on the Facebook Event and register today!

ATTENTION!!!
For: Awakened women who want to tap into their innate power to manifest the next level of love, abundance and success.
Learn how to align with your innate ability to magnetically attract your desires with ease. Most women are not even aware of the choice they have to step into their femininee essence to unlock an experience of life that is overflowing, abundant and full of love. We’ve been conditioned to disconnect from this place of power through methods of striving and control that result in depletion, resentment and burn out. By shifting our energy and our beliefs about what is possible for is we can learn how to align with life and co-create our heart’s desires.
What the workshop includes:
1. Craft a powerful vision for what your next level of success, love and abundance looks like in your life
2. Shift the paradigm for achieving that next level through connection to the Sovereign Woman
3. Call out what barriers women face today that hold them back from creating the life they desire.
4. Powerful next steps for receiving your desire
Goddess Activator and Transformational Coach Kate Gallant coaches conscious entrepreneurs and awakened women to creat their next level of love, abundance and success by stepping into their feminine power. She believes that together, we create a ripple effect that elevates the consciousness of our planet and a brighter future for women everywhere.
