MNH June 130th Anniversary (1)

Etienne Charles and his band showed us a fantastic time last Friday showcasing Gullah Roots! We were so thrilled to partner with @firstworksri and @pvdparks to bring you the first Summer Beats concert of the summer here at RWP!

Shout-out to @melaine.mp3 and @jpittswiley for hosting an inspiring Creative Conversation with @etiennejazz before the show!

Get ready for another night of dancing when The Groovalottos are in town next Friday, July 24, at the Boathouse Lawn. 💃

Last Thursday, RILA brought "La Broa en tu barrio" to Roger Williams Park for an incredible opening night of their Teatro en El Verano series!

Adapted from "La Broa`", which premiered on the stage at @trinity_rep in 2024, this outdoor performance took place at the Broad Street entrance of the park, which is also the center of many of the real-life stories of Rhode Island`s Latino community that inspired the theatrical production. Oral histories collected by Marta V. Martínez were brought to the stage by playwright Orlando Hernández.

Thank you to the talented cast and crew, amazing food vendors, and everyone who came out for the show!
