Jane’s Walk Aquidneck Island for all

May 3 + 4 ,2025

Jane’s Walk is a movement of free, neighbor-led walking conversations inspired by Jane Jacobs. Anybody can lead a Jane’s Walk. The festival encourages people to share stories about their neighborhoods, discover unseen aspects of their communities, and use walking as a way to connect with their neighbors.

All walks are designed and led by community members and are free to join. We’ve got a wide array of walks that explore communities and topics across the Island.

Our 2024 Jane’s Walk Festival Aquidneck was a weekend of walks exploring a range of topics concerning our community led by our neighbors. All walks were free of charge and open to anyone.

An American-Canadian journalist, author, theorist, and activist who influenced urban studies, sociology, and economics whose book on the importance of cities continues to inspire.
