There is also a gallery on site that features a rotating exhibit of the work of local artists.

There's nothing quite like taking a trip with an old friend. Deena Liffman is like one of those long-lost acquaintances who just has a way with words and never seems to fail to put a smile on your face. That combination of humor, knowledge and fun is what makes Providence Tours by Deena such an enjoyable experience. Deena is a veritable treasure trove of trivia, facts and secrets about the people and places that have played significant roles in the history of Rhode Island's capital city.

Sometimes, the best family adventures are the ones where you just spend quality time together playing a game of catch after chowing down a picnic lunch. The perfect place to do that in Providence is Richardson Park. The kids will love the PlayBooster and PlayShaper attractions as well as the Humpty Climbers and swings that are all part of this beautiful park. For the older kids, there's fun to be had on the basketball courts, a water park and the big expansive lawn. An afternoon of great family fun awaits at Richardson Park.
