RESCHEDULED FROM TUESDAY TO THURSDAY DUE TO THE ARRIVAL OF TROPICAL STORM ISAIAS

The Summer Beats pop-up concert series with FirstWorks features live, socially distanced performances with local and international flavor. This week’s featured artist is master percussionist Sidy Maiga, bringing the rhythms of West Africa to the beautiful setting of the park on a summer evening. Grab your mask, picnic blanket, and lawn chair and join us at the Roger Williams Park Dalrymple Boathouse Lawn (across from the Carousel Village – see map) for sets at 6:30 and 7:15 PM.  Financial support for the Summer Beats series comes from the City of Providence Parks Department and the Department of Arts, Culture, and Tourism, and from individual donors and foundations.

Thank you to @ocean_state_ellary for hosting Monday evening gentle yoga sessions these past couple of months, and to everyone who joined us on the lawn outside the Betsey Williams Cottage! As the evenings get cooler, we're ending the season a little early, so we won't be gathering next Monday, September 21. Enjoy the start of autumn! 🍂
Join us this Friday at 10 AM for a Save the Bay cleanup at Roger Williams Park! September means it's International Coastal Cleanup season – you'll be among thousands of participants worldwide collecting and documenting what you pick up to contribute important data on marine (including watershed) debris, while helping beautify your favorite park!

Sign up (link in bio) to be part of the cleanup at the softball fields on September 18!
