On our way home from Nantucket, we spent a day in Providence, Rhode Island. It had been nearly 40 years since we'd last been there, and we knew a lot had changed. We had a wonderful day, shopping on Hope Street, browsing on Thayer Street (the Brown University College Town), and spent two hours at the lovely Rhode Island School of Design Museum. It has a large permanent collection spanning from antiquity to contemporary art, and we enjoyed it all. As we walked from gallery to gallery, I was taken with the variety of staircases, and took photos of many of them with a SNAP collection in mind.
Here are a couple more shots from Providence.
They've done a beautiful job of restoring the waterfront. I'd love to return some day to see the Waterfire display. Sadly, it wasn't scheduled for the Saturday evening we were there.
Here you can see the braziers along each side of the river which are lit during Waterfire.
This is the view of downtown Providence from Prospect Terrace Park.
Providence is the capital of Rhode Island, and although I had another closer photo of the capital building, I preferred this view.
Linking up with Helena and other SNAP enthusiasts.
