Green living, beer brewing on tap at R.I. home show

The 2008 Home Show kicks off today and this year it’s got tips for homeowners who want to make their homes more energy efficient and leave less of a mark on their surroundings.

Think Green is the theme, but there will be tips and demonstrations on all aspects of home life, from advice for older homeowners who want to be sure they can grow old in their homes, to a beer brewing demonstration.

And of course, there will be designers -- landscape architects, contractors, feng shui experts, home stagers – to help attendees make the most out of their space.

The show runs today through Sunday at the Rhode Island Convention Center. See a schedule of events online; tickets run from $3 to $10.

Will someone tell me why do we have to pay to go to the Home Show. We are there as perspective buyer, the same as when we go to the Mall or Grocery store. I would hope people would boycott the show until they give us tickets for free.

Hmm. yeah it sounds silly to have to pay, but date back how far these Home Show's have been going on. Pretty sure only craft beer lovers will go, not teenagers.

Haven't you always had to pay to go? It's $10 at the most. Is that really an arm and a leg? $20 I'd be furious.
