Urban Renewal Tour with Keith Stokes

Starts on the corner of South Man Street and Wickenden

August 4th, 6pm

Join us with historian Keith Stokes as we explore urban renewal within the context of downtown Providence. Beginning on South Main Street, we will meander through the past, present and future of Fox Point, the Jewelry District and Downtown Providence with a particular focus on the experiences of African heritage and Indigenous communities and other residents of color. The talk will be structured in three parts: historical context, current developments, and what the future might hold. The tour will end on the west side of the Pedestrian bridge, just in time for a musical performance brought to you by PVD World Music.
