There's art for art's sake, and then there's art with a purpose. The latter is what you will find when you visit the Woods-Gerry Gallery . The gallery exclusively exhibits the work of the students and faculty of the Rhode Island Independent School District. This ever-changing collection underscores the talents and expressive abilities of artists who are a vital part of our community. The art is expressed through various mediums that include glass, graphic design, textiles, architecture, painting and photography.
Roger Williams Park is often referred to as "the Jewel of Providence" for good reason. This 430-acre park contains a zoo, landscaped grounds, gardens, a carousel and historic buildings. There are also plenty of scenic walking and recreation trails that offer a chance to take in the park's many amenities in a relaxed way.
It's true that the relationship you share with your significant other is as unique as a work of art. For a different yet fun way to express that, take an art class together at the East Side Art Center. The center has been open since 1992 and offers you and your date the chance to tap into your hidden talents and express yourselves with paint, sculpture, and other artistic projects. You'll learn a lot about art and each other on a romantic rendezvous here.
