Pumpkin Envy in Providence

By Linda Tancs

Painter Marc Chagall observed that great art picks up where nature ends.  But sometimes nature produces great art, like the pumpkin show at Roger Williams Park Zoo in Providence, Rhode Island.  Through 31 October an amazing array of lighted and intricately carved jack o’lanterns depicting past and contemporary culture will adorn a trail through the zoo.  Begin at the giraffe exhibit where the trail actually begins.  Commended by the U.S. Library of Congress, the event attracts hordes of fans so be prepared for long waits.
