Renaissance Providence Downtown Hotel is encouraging Rhode Islanders to "Get Out & Discover" the unique jewels that make our capital city special.

In celebration of their 5th Anniversary, large-scale Tape Art drawings will engulf the top and Francis Street side of the Renaissance Hotel; laying tribute to the site that has been a landmark for generations. The Tape Art crew will be given free-reign to use the building as their canvas throughout the week of June 11.
