Lovecraft Arts & Sciences is an eclectic little bookstore hidden away in the Arcade Mall in downtown Providence, Rhode Island. Despite its smaller size, the shop is densely populated with a niche yet wide selection of weird fiction, art, esoterica, academic texts, collectibles, and ephemera.
Staffed by a rogues gallery of friendly bookworms, Lovecraft Arts & Sciences is a valuable resource for anyone new to genre fiction; the booksellers are always willing to offer guidance and recommendations.
The store is the headquarters of the Lovecraft Arts & Sciences Council, the non-profit behind NecronomiCon Providence—a weird fiction convention held every other year, featuring panels, workshops, and readings. The organization also hosts other events throughout the year, including tours, exhibits, and lectures.
