A look at the plans for the WaterFire Arts Center that we made during last year’s Yes on 5 Campaign.
Did you know that WaterFire draws over 1,000,000 visitors to Providence each year to experience the artwork and that activity support 1,294 jobs in the community according to a 2012 economic impact evaluation conducted by the US Army Corps of Engineers?
