This workshop – E.M.C.E.E. (Etiquette, Musicianship, Control, Engagement, Energy) – participants will work with artist and educator Chachi Carvalho, to take a critical look at the skills and techniques needed to deliver a memorable performance. Participants will engage in an open discussion with Chachi and they will also have an opportunity to hear from the band and apply some of the techniques they learn about during the band’s soundcheck prior to their live show. Maybe a few brave attendees can jam with the band during soundcheck.

All are welcome. Minors under the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult. Registration fee can be waived upon request by emailing the Roger Williams Park Conservancy.

In the event of inclement weather attendees will receive an email about rescheduling.

It’s not every board meeting that you get to meet a tamandua! 😍

This curious critter made an appearance at the RWPC Board Meeting this morning at the @rwpzoo Education Center. Huge thank you to Amy Roberts, Andrea Stein, Anthony Polite, and Kim Warren from the Zoo team for letting us meet Oblio and sharing so many interesting facts about the tamandua (a type of anteater!). Oblio brought many professional insights to the meeting, too 🐜

Visit the Zoo to learn more about tamanduas and other amazing animals!

Shout-out to @pvdparks for maintaining the many beautiful trails at the Park! 

Before hitting the trail, please note that the only way to access this path is via the Park Avenue entrance while Maple Avenue and Pine Hill Avenue are currently closed. Find parking along Frederick C. Green Memorial Blvd. right when you turn into the park!
