RISD heads graduation list this weekend

Rhode Island School of Design, where graduation is sometimes an art show itself thanks to students' artful caps and gowns, holds commencement tomorrow at 10 a.m.

For motorists expecting to pass through the RISD area on the East Side of Providence, traffic will be held for roughly 15 minutes on South Water Street some time between 9:30 and 10 a.m. while graduating students make their way through. Students begin that journey at the First Baptist Church.

It's one of several college and high school graduations this weekend.

Bristol Community College holds graduation tomorrow at its Fall River, Mass., campus starting at 11 a.m.

Also tomorrow, in Barrington, the St. Andrew's School ceremony is at 11 a.m.

On Sunday, at 1 p.m., Joseph Case High School in Swansea, Mass., has graduation, as does Tri-County Regional Vocational School in Massachusetts at noon and, at 2 p.m., Bishop Stang High School in Dartmouth, Mass. Bishop Connolly High School, in Fall River, Mass., holds graduation at 4 p.m. Sunday.
