Becoming Providence: Mural and Gallery Tour is an immersive exploration of Providence’s creative identity, experienced through vibrant murals and dynamic gallery spaces. You’ll encounter striking murals that offer a window into the city’s evolving identity, revealing the people, stories, and forces that have shaped Providence over time. Along the way, we’ll step inside three standout galleries, where that story continues through contemporary artists whose work is actively shaping what Providence is becoming today. The result is a visually rich, thoughtfully designed experience that reveals the city not as a static snapshot, but as a place in motion, continually redefining itself. A minimum of four guests is required for tours to run. If fewer than four guests are booked, we’ll contact you the morning of the tour with refund or rescheduling options.

WaterFire is full of motion—fire tenders stoke the fires, rivers flow quietly beneath the braziers, sparks whirl through the night air, and flames reflect off the dark surface of the water, animating the architectural fabric of the city. Our WaterFire boat rides put you right in the heart of one of Rhode Island’s most iconic traditions. WaterFire lightings are intimate, unforgettable, and unmistakably Providence—an experience you simply can’t get anywhere else. Glide through the glow with us as firelight dances on the water and music fills the air. These cruises sell out fast, so grab your spots and let the flames guide you. We've been offering our WaterFire boat rides since the fires began in 1994, come see why we are the best way to experience this magical and beloved Providence event!
