“Rainkeep” featured
Page A1 of the November 24, 2025 edition of The Sun Chronicle
The Sun Chronicle interviewed Brian Hatch, president of Riverwalk Arts Inc., and Allison Newsome, an internationally recognized artist from Warren, R.I., about Allison’s sculpture, “Rainkeep,” that is set to be on permanent display in the Judith Robbins Riverwalk Park.
We are raising between $25K and $35K to install the Rain Harvesting Sculpture in the Judith Robbins Park in downtown Attleboro on the banks of the Ten Mile River, which will include landscaping with native plants that will benefit from the 350 gallons of rainwater harvested by the sculpture.
The sculpture is by Newsome, who has developed rain harvesting themed sculptures which have been featured in Venice, at SoHo NYC, and ‘Botanica’ in Key Largo, Florida. Each Rainkeep sculpture has a unique name that explains its purpose, the science behind its meaning, or the materials used.
