DOWNTOWN WOONSOCKET COLLABORATIVE ANNOUNCES RETURN OF
TWILIGHT ON THE BLACKSTONE
The Downtown Woonsocket Collaborative is excited to announce that our signature event,
"Twilight on the Blackstone" is returning this year! We can't wait to celebrate another wonderful
night of dining, dancing, and fun on the Court Street bridge. This year's dinner is planned for
Saturday, August 26th, from 6pm to 10pm with a rain date of August 27th. This event is the yearly
fundraiser for DWC, a non-profit board of Main Street enthusiasts dedicated to the revitalization
and promotion of the downtown
Local chef Mike Heroux will be preparing a multi-course meal which will include bruschetta
crostini, corn and crab chowder, and a mixed greens salad with wild berries, pistachio goat cheese,
pickled red onion, and raspberry vinaigrette. The entree will be a roast tenderloin of beef with
mushroom ragu and red wine demi glacé, served with parsnip and potato puree and roasted carrot
batonettes. Dessert menu TBA. Local band “No Exit 4” will be providing music throughout the
night.
"We are so pleased to bring this unique open-air dining experience back to downtown
Woonsocket" said Event Chair Melissa Murray. "Where else can you dine, drink, mingle, and
dance the night away under the stars 100 feet above the scenic Blackstone River? Our goal is to
offer a one-of-a-kind experience that will give both Woonsocket residents and visitors a new love
and appreciation for our City and all that it offers."
"I am incredibly excited for the return of our premiere event, Twilight on the Blackstone" stated
DWC Chair Adam Brunetti.
