Kids love to play on fun playground rides. But in doing that, they can also learn about the importance of being a good neighbor when you take them to the Peace and Plenty Community Park. This long-awaited community playground attraction has been in the making for some time, and now that it has been unveiled, it symbolizes the importance of working together. Neighbors, community families and the City of Providence Parks Department have all collaborated to create this fun place on the site that was once an old apartment building. Since that structure was demolished, this beacon of unity stands in its place for friends and families to enjoy.

At AS220, creative artistic expression is highly encouraged. This popular downtown spot brings together such diverse groups as local artists, families, and tourists to enjoy selections from the city's arts, music and entertainment scene. The venue hosts live performances at least six nights a week that include live bands, poetry readings and performance art, just to name a few. There is also a gallery on site that features a rotating exhibit of the work of local artists.

It's rare to find so much history all in one place, but that is exactly what you will find when you encounter Benefit Street's Mile of History. This is perhaps the most impressively concentrated group of original Colonial homes in the country. See the amazing details that adorn the restored houses and churches, and visit the museums that overlook the city's equally historic waterfront.
