I’ve lived here almost 6 years but other than eating out, I haven’t figured out what activities there really are! I live in the Cranston/Providence area. What do you recommend?

Check out the Historic Park Theater and event center, they may have some shows going on.

They have a couple things! Not sure how interested I am in r-rated hypnotism, but I appreciate the awesome suggestion!

It really depends on what you like to do. There are a lot of beautiful sight-seeing spots and hikes. The Cliff Walk in Newport is great. The Mansions are awesome, though a little pricey. In Providence, walking Benefit Street and Brown U to look at architecture is good. The RISD Museum is free on Sundays. There are some guided tours. Get the info on them at the visitors center at the convention center. Outside Providence, Wickford village is cool to stroll and shop, as are Warren and Bristol.

Off topic, but what's with people that are especially from Georgia coming to RI? What's attracting people.

Freedom and democracy maybe?

On topic: maybe consider going a bit further past the area for state parks. I think it's worth it. RISD beach is only 10 minutes drive away from downtown if it's still warm enough. Very close options are RISD museum and shops near hope street/wickeden. Seeing brown uni main campus etc, that's a bit of a tourist attraction too. The Providence ghost tour is really good for walking around the area in a guided tour if spooks™️
