Saturday, June 1st
Full Lighting
Sunset ( 8:14 pm ) - 11:00 pm
Onshore programming and vendor open at 6:30 pm
Join us for a full lighting on Saturday, June 1, made possible through the support of the @rhodeislandschoolofdesign . The first full lighting of the 2024 season is set to honor the Commencement of RISD’s class of 2024 and celebrate RISD’s Reunion Weekend. The lighting will begin at 8:30 PM and the braziers will remain lit until 11:00 PM.
This past winter, the WaterFire community lost a dear friend, Michael Grando, who brought his gentle spirit to WaterFire for over two decades. The community is invited to join an observance with the Eastern Medicine Singers and a drum circle in his honor at 7:30 PM in Memorial Park. WaterFire’s traditional observance of the Memorial Canoe, followed by Michael’s Thai boat, will depart Waterplace Basin around 8:55 PM on its voyage down the entire river. At 9:30 PM, near the drum circle, Michael’s daughter Crow Grando will don traditional makeup, and Pierrette will continue Pierrot’s mission of presenting flowers to those along the riverside. A collection of Michael’s images and writings, along with a remembrance book, will be at Market Square all evening.
