Rain Harvest Festival

Sunday, September 28, 11 AM – 2 PM
Roger Williams Park Botanical Center Pavilion
Presented by the Stormwater Innovation Center

The Rain Harvest Festival is a free community event in Roger Williams Park celebrating art, music, and the importance of clean water in our communities. The event celebrates the Providence Parks Department’s investment in over 40 projects to clean polluted stormwater runoff before it enters the Roger Williams Park pond system, as well as the efforts of many Rhode Island organizations to improve water quality and natural systems in our communities. The Festival is made possible through our sponsors and partners, the Providence Parks Department, and the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT).
