The South Kingstown Town Council has approved a resolution granting a Class F 19-hour beverage license to the Hera Gallery and Educational Foundation for their upcoming Full Moon Party fundraiser. Scheduled for October 4, 2025, from 6 PM to 10 PM, the event promises an evening of live music, dancing, and various activities, including tarot card readings and raffles.
During the meeting, representatives from the gallery, including treasurer Donna Gustafson and assistant director Marissa, detailed the event's plans. They emphasized that ticket sales will be limited to ensure a manageable crowd, adhering to insurance requirements. Attendees can purchase tickets through the gallery's website, ensuring easy access for community members interested in participating.
The council's approval marks a significant step for the gallery, which is currently transitioning leadership. The resolution also highlighted the need for administrative updates regarding the license application, as the previous director's name was still associated with the license. This change will streamline future events and ensure proper representation.
The Full Moon Party is expected to be a vibrant celebration, showcasing local culture and community spirit while supporting the gallery's ongoing initiatives. As preparations continue, the council's support underscores the importance of local arts and fundraising efforts in South Kingstown.
