Sisters Circle Up is a space for women with connections to Roger Williams Park to get together to share memory, lived histories, and peace practices. Join storyteller and story collector Raffini as she leads participants through a memory practice as she captures the stories of sisters and their narratives of Roger Williams Park.

This work will be the research and engagement Raffini will use to create her final commemorative work for The Providence Commemoration Lab at the end of this summer.

Note: Dinner and childcare will be provided. The Gateway Center is ADA accessible.
By coming to these events you are agreeing to be photographed. The documentation will be used by Raffini for her research and maybe in producing the installation for PCL.

Can it be Friday at Roger Williams Park every day, please? 🥙🍿🎠

This past Friday was especially awesome thanks to a preview show from Ringling featuring talented acrobats, a Movies in the Park screening of The Greatest Showman, and, of course, Food Truck Friday!
