      ColorfulSpectacle_sm.preview

WaterFire, ‘the award-winning sculpture by Barnaby Evans installed on the three rivers of downtown Providence, has been praised by Rhode Island residents and international visitors alike as a powerful work of art and a moving symbol of Providence’s renaissance’. A unique and very popular tradition here in Providence, with music and vendors, great for the whole family! They light the fires starting at Memorial Park, and work their way down the river into the center of Waterplace Park. Begins at sunset, and the fires stay lit until midnight. Tonight is Noche de Fuego: A Celebration of Latin Culture at WaterFire.

Downcity Sidewalk Sale – 9/11

SDC10740

We get so excited for this day of BARGAIN HUNTING every fall. All of our favorite shops in the neighborhood put deeply discounted sale merchandise outside for us to discover. And its a great time looking through the clothing, accessories, gifts, home decore, stationary, handmade goods, books, and more! I’m going early to make sure I get my hands on the best finds! Take a stroll down Westminster St. and win!

So far here are the deals that I’ve heard about:

Farmstead – Will be offering a free bag of chips with the purchase of a sandwich that day. They’re calling it “…All That Shopping And A Bag of Chips.”

Queen of Hearts – Great summer clothes on sale, accessories, and 70% off of vintage items!

Symposium Books – Racks of great books out on the sidewalk all day, big discounts!

Aspire – Live music in the plaza (Westminster and Mathewson) to enjoy after the shopping blitz.

Homestyle – Seriously discounted gifts, childrens toys, home accessories, and more. They are looking to make room new holiday orders, so expect some great finds!

Eno Fine Wines – Taste wine for FREE! They will be sampling old and new world Chardonnay & Pinot Noir from 3pm-5pm. Wine always helps make shopping more fun!

We’ll be adding more info as we hear it!
