i didn’t think i would get the opportunity to keep taking photos in university, but i’m grateful that i was able to as pr officer for ccb. this was one of the photos i took for our ice skating event, which was our second collaboration with the second-year board. still not sure who decided it was a good idea to host a four-hour outdoor event during the winter, but the day was beautiful and i had so much fun! my ankles hurt but the insomnia cookies made it all better. miss my ccbabes very much right now 🥺

Looking for a fun day trip for February Break?
Here are some of the best things to do near Providence, RI
🥞 Start the day with a stop at The Modern Diner (364 East Ave, Pawtucket) for breakfast or brunch (highly recommend the award-winning Custard French Toast)
🗺️ Then head over to The Map Center (545 Pawtucket Ave, Pawtucket) and check out all the cool maps, books, and globes that Andrew has in his store
⛸️ 10 minutes away is the Providence Rink (2 Kennedy Plaza, Providence) where you can rent skates for an afternoon on the ice, and if you book ahead of time you might even get tickets for the ice bumper cars, which looked like a ton of fun!
🍕Providence Coal Fired Pizza came highly recommended for a vibey pizza stop
🍪 and definitely don’t head home before stopping by Insomnia Cookies (259 Weybosset St, Providence) for a treat for the drive home!

By 1983, when this photo was taken, the railroads that had dominated the city for over 100 years were clearly past their prime. These overgrown and elevated train tracks would soon be removed and those that remained pushed underground. The tunnel that these elevated tracks led to would be closed and the bridge across the Seekonk River on the other side of the tunnel would be raised for the last time.

Join us in preserving and enhancing the Downtown Providence Park Network (DPPN)
Because of you… our parks live forever. 💚
Downtown belongs to the people who walk through it every day; the friends meeting up, the families strolling, the quiet moments on a bench, and the energy of shared city life. Thanks to your support, our parks and public spaces remain open, welcoming, and vibrant for everyone.
From art and light installations to concerts, cultural celebrations, and wayfinding that tells our story, your support helps bring downtown to life — season after season.
As grant funding tightens, individual support matters more than ever. If you’re able, consider making an end-of-year gift to keep these spaces thriving for all who call Providence home.
Thank you for an incredible 2025! here’s to 2026.
Downtown Providence is a place where people belong. You belong HERE 📍 Providence
Merry Christmas Eve! 🎄 Reliving the sparkle of the PVD Holiday Festival and feeling all the cozy vibes. Thanks for celebrating with us, Providence!
Have you seen the cool new light installation on Westminster?
After a heavy week for our community, many of us are carrying A LOT. Sometimes being out together, supporting local shops, sharing a meal, or walking outside with loved ones can feel grounding. Our Downtown businesses are here, ready to welcome you, and every visit helps our neighbors who make this city the very best in the US! Be kind to yourself, be kind to each other, and when you’re ready, come downtown. We love PVD, Westminster Street & @symposiumbooks
Thank You, Providence ❤️🩸
