The Sonic Woods Arts Trail is an exciting new collaboration between Verdant Vibes, Casey Seymour Kim, the Roger Williams Park Conservancy, and the Providence Parks Department. Participants will be guided along the Pleasure Lake trail at Roger Williams Park, where they will discover poetry and illustrations by Casey Seymour Kim, and live music by members of Verdant Vibes. Participants will be invited to wander along the designated trail at their own leisure, enjoying the artistic offerings as well as the ability to generate their own response, if they choose.

Park at the Botanical Center and follow the trail along Pleasure Lake, across the bridge -or- park by the Museum and walk down the grassy hill behind the Museum towards Pleasure Lake.

About the Artists:

Stage actress Casey Seymour Kim has been working professionally in New England for the past 20 years. She has been a resident artist at both Perishable Theatre and the Gamm Theatre, and has created original work with Strange Attractor and for PVD Fringe. She is a current member of the improv troupe Improv Jones, and teaches theatre arts at Rhode Island College.

Verdant Vibes is a contemporary music collective based in Providence and dedicated to highlighting the diversity of music composition and performance of our time, and cross-pollinating ideas and influences. In doing so, it aims to build a greater community celebrating the work of living artists.

#GivingTuesday2025 is just around the corner, and we get it – there are so many wonderful local nonprofits seeking support this time of year!

Why include Roger Williams Park Conservancy in your giving plan? 

Behind the more than 50 free and low-cost programs hosted every year, the restoration of beloved historic structures still playing a role in the community today, and the expansive green spaces and waterways sustaining humans and wildlife alike, there are crucial partnerships and much hard work that goes into stewarding Roger Williams Park.

As Board Member Chris Lanen shares – and so many families can relate to! – "the Park provides [a] retreat into nature. Individually, it gives me a place to exercise and decompress. As a parent, it gives my child a magical place to play, explore, and learn throughout the year.”

Find the link to donate in our bio, with options for one-time or recurring gifts!
To all those celebrating, happy Thanksgiving from RWPC! Don’t forget: our trails and paths are always available for a rejuvenating post-feast walk! 🍂

We would love to hear what you’re thankful for about Roger Williams Park – is it a favorite piece of architecture or a serene place to retreat into nature? A favorite event or family outing that’s become a tradition? Let us know!
