Where city meets nature 🌿

Living Edge transforms a small stretch of Providence’s waterfront into something bigger—an evolving space that blends art, ecology, and community. Designed by DPPN board member, adam anderson, of DESIGN UNDER SKY (@design.under.sky), this award-winning installation reimagines what our riverfront can be: resilient, beautiful, and deeply connected to the natural world.

From “fallen log” seating to native grasses and young forest growth, every detail tells a story of change, adaptation, and coexistence 🌊🌾

A reminder that even the smallest spaces can shape the future of our city.

Honoring the women who shaped Providence—not just with words, but with action, courage, and vision 💛

From Josefina “Doña Fefa” Rosario, who built community through compassion, to Christiana Carteaux Bannister, who made space for creativity to thrive…

From Annie Smith Peck, who climbed past every barrier, to Helen Rowe Metcalf, who built a legacy that still shapes the arts today…

These women—and so many others—helped define the spirit of this city.

This Women’s History Month, we celebrate their stories, their impact, and the paths they created for future generations ✨

Turn the crank and let Rhode Island sing ⚓✨

Our glowing ANCHORS, created by @lemondestudio are just as striking in the daylight as they are after dark. Even better? They’re completely human-powered.

Give the cranks a spin and you’ll unlock playlists from Rhode Island musicians, with new songs rotating every three months. A little movement, a little music, and a lot of local creativity.

Come try them out and tag us when you do 🎶
