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.

The Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® Hype Crew will bring a preview of The Greatest Show On Earth® to Food Truck Friday at Roger Williams Park, kicking off this summer’s Movies in the Park series on May 8! You will be treated to a high-energy mini performance featuring a variety of acts, including unicycles, jump rope acrobatics, balancing, and more – all building excitement for @ringling’s return to Providence!

This Friday, grab a bite to eat at 5 PM from one of the amazing food trucks at Carousel Village, and then head over to the Boathouse lawn (just across the street) for the Ringling Bros. preview show at 5:30 PM. Stick around to see The Greatest Showman at 8 PM!
