WaterFire Providence

WaterFire is a magnificent array of more than 80 mini bonfires or braziers that illuminate the three rivers of Providence. It began in 1994 when artist Barnaby Evans used the confluence of the rivers to create this ephemeral water exhibition. However, it was not that fleeting because the city of Providence along with generous volunteers and donors continues to present the exhibition every weekend. The route runs from Waterplace Park to South Main Street and it winds nearly two-thirds of a mile through parks and public spaces in downtown Providence. Here, people can stroll along the riverbanks while listening to the sounds of classical music hum over loudspeakers. The fires are lit approximately 20 minutes after sunset each Saturday and usually burn for two to three hours.

Ladd Observatory

Located in a lush garden close to Brown University, this ancient relic built in 1890 is fairly small, but in pretty good shape considering that it's more than a century old. Named after Herbert Ladd, the observatory served as a center of astronomical research and timekeeping for years, and although the equipment is considered archaic by today's standards, it's still relevant for Brown University's sky-watchers. To visit, the observatory is only open to the public on Tuesdays, but it's free admission.

Avon Cinema

For over 25 years the Avon has been offering first-run art house foreign and independent films on Providence's College Hill. The theater has a plush, retro interior and its where artsy Brown or RISD students come to watch directors like Truffaut, Malle and Herzog among more contemporary ones like Ira Sachs and Nadav Sherman. It's located on bustling Thayer Street, and even if you don't catch a show, the neighborhood still merits a visit because it provides a great excuse to shop, eat or just stroll the Wriston Quadrangle on the Brown University campus.

Culinary Archives & Museum At Johnson & Wales University

This culinary arts museum is run under the auspices of the illustrious private Johnson & Wales University that female founders Gertrude I. Johnson and Mary T. Wales established in 1915. The museum houses a massive collection of cookbooks and other paraphernalia in the kitchen, from old stoves, signs and utensils to a chef's gallery, culinary autographs by U.S. Presidents and over a half million documents. Overall a very interesting museum for anyone who likes to eat!

Lizzie Borden House

An overnight stay at Lizzie Borden Bed and Breakfast is only for the most daring; others best opt for the one-hour guided tour. This Victorian house is the site of one of the most gruesome and sensational crimes in world history. Lizzie Borden allegedly killed her stepmother and father with multiple hatchet blows. However, she was not proven guilty, and the mystery continues to fascinate historians, criminologists, and media, with the incident depicted in books, poems, and television shows. This house, bearing the historic address 92 Second Street, was the Borden family home, and guests can rent out their original bedrooms, some of which are said to be haunted. Guests and visitors can watch the crime scene recreated and shop for memorabilia from the attached souvenir shop.
