Rhode Island may be a tiny state, but Drupal's making a pretty big splash here. We've been having regular meetups for the past year in Providence via DrupalPVD.org with new faces every month. Our focus is equal parts designer, developer and site owner; our goal is to help everyone learn, grow and share their experience working with and on the Drupal platform.
Our other source of Drupal company is the Boston group which caters to all of Massachusetts and occasionally has meetings close to Rhode Island.
