Awesome. It’s actually gonna be on a street!
I liked when it was down on South Water St. It brought some foot traffic to a really nice area of the city that deserved more foot traffic, even though it is a little off the beaten path for most people visiting downtown Providence.
with an artisan’s market and the artist actually painting in the street,this will be even a better event even than last year!
