Waterfire - Providence, RI


Waterfire occurs most Saturday nights - including this Saturday, August 20 - in the summer and fall in Providence, RI. Sculptures designed by Barnaby Evans have been installed in three of Providence's rivers and are set on fire after sunset.

The result is an amazing sight - fire reflected on the water for as far as the eye can see. It's truly beautiful. E and I try to get to Waterfire at least once a year.

The upper levels of Providence Place Mall provide a good viewing point. To get a closer view, leave the mall, walk across the street and then along the river.
