“I can’t imagine MASS MoCA absent Porches. More than a conveniently adjacent hotel, the Inn, staff, and management are truly partners in hospitality. Porches has welcomed artists, critics, writers and our patrons with graciousness and style. Nearly two decades into the relationship, I am still learning the ways in which art, culture, hospitality, and socioeconomic development interact. It is more important than I ever imagined it would be.”
Joseph Thompson | Founding Director, MASS MoCA
“The Main Street team reached out to all facets of the community—artists, not-for-profits, vendors, public and private educators and political leaders—to establish Hammetts Hotel as a community asset. They reflected our own objectives for the property, and left a lasting impression on the City of Newport.”
Colin Kane | Principal, Peregrine Group
“Main Street Hospitality has been an integral part of developing, sustaining, and enhancing the economy and heritage of our region.”
Adam Hinds | Massachusetts State Senator
“Main Street turned an under-performing property into a thriving operation connected to The College. The results, both financial and relational, have been significant.”
