Posted

Providence may be small, but it packs lots of spirit – especially holiday spirit. As the temperatures drop and the first snow falls, it’s time for the city to festoon itself in lights, garland, and everything silver and gold to welcome the start of what most consider the most wonderful time of year. From Silver Lake to Wayland, and Smith Hill to Elmwood, neighborhoods all over the city feature their own holiday traditions, whether it’s an ornately decorated Christmas tree, a night of community caroling, or just a favorite joint to go grab hot cocoa. Browse through all the ways to best experience a holly, jolly Prov.
Awesome ways to lend a helping hand this season, and beyond
