Come to Business After Hours and enjoy an evening of networking in a relaxed social setting.   Ideal for meeting fellow professionals, suppliers, community leaders and clients while you establish long-lasting business relationships.  Our hosts will treat you to a scrumptious array of hors-d'oeuvres while you sip on a glass of wine, beer, soda or water.

It’s good to have a financial partner right around the corner – a bank that’s ready to meet with you at a moments notice and able to make decisions based on knowing you or your business personally. Washington Trust has been here for Rhode Islanders since 1800 – and we are here for you now. Find out why Rhode Islanders look to us as trusted advisors, as they have for more than 209 years.
