Discover Providence, Rhode Island the Creative Capital. Hailed as the “Best city for foodies” and on of the “Top 5 quirkiest cities,” Providence doesn’t disappoint. The city is bursting with creativity, culinary excellence, and small-time charm. You’ll find walkable neighborhoods filled with historic and modern architecture. While in the city we suggest visiting RISD Museum, Roger Williams Park & Zoo, and The Providence Atheneum. Interested in shopping for unique treasures downtown, try Wickenden, Weybosset, and Westminster streets; East Side of Providence stroll down Hope, Thayer, and Wickenden Streets; or if you’re in the Federal Hill district Atwells Avenue.
Rhode Island may be the smallest U.S. state, but it is abundant in history, legendary Gilded Age mansions, amazing food, and 400 miles of shoreline on Narragansett Bay in the Atlantic Ocean. From the Blackstone Valley Region to the historic city of Newport, you won’t forget your visit to the Ocean State!
Below are links to assist in your preparations for the 2026 IACA Conference in Rhode Island!
