“The newest addition to our summer programming is an opportunity to present local acoustic artists in one of the City’s most splendid parks,” said Stephanie Fortunato, Director of the City of Providence’s Department of Art, Culture + Tourism. “Summer is a great time to invite people to explore our city’ public spaces through high quality arts programming.”
Head on down to Waterplace Park after-work and enjoy some beautiful scenery, amazing local music and great food. The TunesDays series will feature a local acoustic artist against the backdrop of the Waterplace basin. Spectators are encouraged to stick around after the show to explore dinner options at local restaurants.
On August 21th, singer/songwriter Steve Volkman performs. Originally a rock bassist in the New England music scene, Steve moved to NYC in 2005 and was quickly inspired by the urban landscape and its culture. This led to a new creative endeavor as Steve began to write songs based on his observations and experiences. Steve recently relocated to Providence’s thriving music scene and can be heard live at various venues, coffee shops, and festivals.
