The mission of the Pawtucket Armory Center for the Arts, founded in 2002, is the rehabilitation and management of the historic Pawtucket National Guard Armory on Exchange Street, Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The continuing rehabilitation will see the conversion of the Armory into an active and vibrant forum for arts and culture. Over the past six years, the building and an adjacent Annex, both of which were in deteriorating condition, have been renovated to accommodate the J. M. Walsh School for the Performing and Visual Arts, a unit of the Pawtucket Public School system, and the The Sandra Feinstein-Gamm Theatre (The Gamm), Rhode Island's second- largest theater company and one of just two theaters in RI working under contract with Actors Equity Association.
