Things to Do in Providence
Art + History
The RISD Museum is a great place to spend a few hours or to wander around all day. There are tons of interesting exhibits to explore. My personal favorite is the Charles Pendelton House (which is built directly into the museum).
Admission is free on Sundays; the rest of the week is $15 for adults & free for youth (>18).
Fun fact - it's the 20th largest art museum in the United States.

The Providence Athenaeum is a historic library open to the public. Formed in 1753, this library has strong ties to Edgar Allen Poe and H.P. Lovecraft. This is one of my favorite places to take visitors to & to go to read a book or work on a project (if I can find a seat) in the stunning space.

60 Congdon StAbout half a mile from the Airbnb, this is my favorite park in the city. I run, bike or walk the 3.5 mile loop that takes you around the entire park a few times per week. It is really well maintained and used by lots of people in Providence. Check out if there are events in the park such as live music or events at the zoo or botanical gardens.
