S.A.S.I.ri is designed to help artists find, lease, acquire, and own live/work spaces and studios in Rhode Island, thereby creating a sustainable base of artists who are immune to the inevitable changes of the real estate market.

The information provided in the Locate and Discuss sections of the site is created by S.A.S.I.ri users in an effort to connect Rhode Island artists with rentals and real estate that are suitable for their needs and to help property owners connect with artists as potential renters and buyers. S.A.S.I.ri users are not screened prior to posting information on this site. The Rhode Island State Council on the Arts (RISCA) maintains the www.sasiri.org site, however, RISCA does not take any responsibilty for the the content posted on the Locate and Discuss sections of the site. RISCA staff do not view the locations advertised in the Locate and Discuss sections, nor does RISCA promote or recommend any goods or services listed on this site.

To moderate demands on S.A.S.I.ri resources, you may not use a third-party Posting Agent to advertise properties on this site. This resource is intended to be a direct form of communication between individual artists, arts organizations, and property owners.

Property owners interested in further understanding the types of housing sought by Rhode Island artists may refer to RISCA's 2005 Artists Housing Survey.
