Inspired by Movies in the Park happening at the Boathouse Lawn tonight, we created a short film of our own reminiscing about Rosé in the Roses last month!

Our biennial garden party fundraiser event raised (🥁🥁)... $15,000! Those proceeds will go toward hosting free programming and creating community at Roger Williams Park all year long, from movie nights to concerts and more. Whether you were a sponsor, volunteer, or attended Rosé in the Roses, thank you for supporting RWPC – we couldn’t do it without you! 🌹🥂

Groovin' Summer Movies continues this Friday, July 3, with "Sing" (2016)! Start the holiday weekend off right by heading over to Food Truck Friday (kicks off at 5 PM) for karaoke and easy dinner plans at Carousel Village, and then make your way to the Boathouse Lawn for the movie, starting at sundown!

We're in for a week of hot weather, which means there's no better time to be outside than later in the evening when the temps drop – but it doesn't hurt to bring your own water and bug spray!

Special thanks to @pvdfilmfestival for making Movies in the Park possible, with support from @providencetourism and @@pvdparks, and to @pvd_foodtruckevents  and @rwpzoo for hosting Food Truck Friday at Carousel Village!
Join us for a Partner Peace Walk tomorrow at 12 PM! All are welcome to take a stroll with us and @nonviolenceinstitute to connect, talk, and enjoy the outdoors – meet at the Boathouse at Roger Williams Park. These walks take place every Friday, except for holidays.
