Meet Maestro 🎶✨
A set of four giant illuminated musical notes that come to life through human power. Turn the crank, trigger the music, and watch the lights respond as sound and glow build together in real time.
Designed for playful discovery and shared moments, Maestro invites everyone to step in, take a turn, and transform the streetscape into an interactive performance during LUMINA 2026.
Come play. Come connect.
You Belong Here.

Most people walk past it every day without knowing its story.
For more than 200 years, this corner has been known as Turk’s Head — long before street signs, maps, or skyscrapers defined downtown. From a carved wooden figurehead on a ship called the Sultan, to the stone face watching over Westminster and Weybosset today, this building carries Providence’s maritime history, memory, and movement through the city.
What looks like just another tower is really a landmark of identity, wayfinding, and shared civic life. Downtown isn’t just something we pass through — it’s something we inherit, protect, and shape together.

LUMINA 2026 is about JOY. ✨
Joy in the middle of winter.
Joy in public spaces.
Joy in showing up for one another.
This year’s festival is about coming together as a community for something good 🫶 gathering downtown to experience art, light, music, and shared moments that remind us how powerful it is to be together.
For two weeks, Providence becomes a place to linger, laugh, explore, and feel connected. Because joy is worth making space for;
and it’s even better when it’s shared. 💛
Snow storm safety reminder ❄️
Slow down and watch for icy patches
Stick to plowed sidewalks and cleared park paths
Take small, steady steps
Wear boots with good traction
Give yourself extra time
Stay indoors if you can!
Stay safe out there 🤍

Providence… did you miss the Eras Tour? 🎤✨
Turn the crank, make it glow, and step into your daylight 🌞 a downtown full of oversized guitars, pink cowboy boots, giant lipsticks, and sunglasses bigger than your wildest dreams. 👢💄🕶️🎸
It’s the moment I knew, the main character energy, the life of a showgirl vibe you’ve been waiting for. Plan the road trip, grab your friends, and shake it off downtown, because these installations aren’t just art 🫶 they’re a love story between Providence and Swifties everywhere. 💫
So get ready to begin again, snap your photos, tag us, and say: I remember it all too well 🥹
Downtown Providence… welcome to your era. ✨
