We’re all doing things differently these days and that includes how we celebrate holidays like Passover and Easter. Perhaps you went food shopping weeks ago and don’t have your usual supplies or groceries but you can still improvise and make the most of things. Provided are some ideas to get you started.

Reset Your Zoom
Gathering for Passover or Easter via Zoom? Add a virtual background of iconic Providence art instead of the dimly lit space behind your laptop. Find simple step by step instructions from The Avenue Concept.

Special Delivery
Many restaurants have curbside pickup and delivery, but the Chanler at Cliff Walk also offers the chance of the delivery person being that essential employee, the Easter Bunny! For other options, visit COVID-19 Rhody Resources under Dining, updated daily.
