The Sonic Woods Arts Trail is an exciting new collaboration between Verdant Vibes, Casey Seymour Kim, the Roger Williams Park Conservancy, and the Providence Parks Department. Participants will be guided along the Pleasure Lake trail at Roger Williams Park, where they will discover poetry and illustrations by Casey Seymour Kim, and live music by members of Verdant Vibes. Participants will be invited to wander along the designated trail at their own leisure, enjoying the artistic offerings as well as the ability to generate their own response, if they choose.

Park at the Botanical Center and follow the trail along Pleasure Lake, across the bridge -or- park by the Museum and walk down the grassy hill behind the Museum towards Pleasure Lake.

It’s not every board meeting that you get to meet a tamandua! 😍

This curious critter made an appearance at the RWPC Board Meeting this morning at the @rwpzoo Education Center. Huge thank you to Amy Roberts, Andrea Stein, Anthony Polite, and Kim Warren from the Zoo team for letting us meet Oblio and sharing so many interesting facts about the tamandua (a type of anteater!). Oblio brought many professional insights to the meeting, too 🐜

Visit the Zoo to learn more about tamanduas and other amazing animals!

Winter walks πŸ‚> January blues πŸ₯Ά Take a walk with us at Roger Williams Park! We visited the trail along Elm Lake near the softball field – a short, easy trail with stunning frosty lake views (especially during golden hour) and woodsy path. Shout-out to @pvdparks for maintaining the many beautiful trails at the Park! 

Before hitting the trail, please note that the only way to access this path is via the Park Avenue entrance while Maple Avenue and Pine Hill Avenue are currently closed. Find parking along Frederick C. Green Memorial Blvd. right when you turn into the park!
Join @rwpmuseum for a Winter Bird Walk Saturday morning at 10 AM! See wintering waterfowl and many more feathered friends during this guided walk. Tickets are $3 (register online). πŸ¦†
