Featured Locations On This Scavenger Hunt

Smith Center for the Arts

Kick off your hunt at the edge of Friartown with the Smith Center for the Arts — a modern hub where Friar creativity takes the spotlight. From concerts to plays, the next great performance is always just a curtain-rise away.

Harkins Hall

Stroll by the crown jewel of Providence College — Harkins Hall. Standing proud, its Gothic towers have seen over a century of Friar firsts, from opening-day welcomes to graduation-day goodbyes, and still whisper stories to anyone curious enough to listen.

Ruane Center for the Humanities

The Ruane Center for the Humanities still brings the “wow” before you even walk in. Its Gothic-inspired towers frame a space buzzing with debates, discoveries, and ideas that shape Friartown’s future. Opened in 2013, Ruane proves that the humanities aren’t just alive at PC — they’re thriving in style.

Raymond Hall

Welcome to Raymond Hall — or “Ray” to those in the know — where Friars fuel up for the day ahead. As PC’s main dining hub, it’s a place for more than just meals: it’s where roommates swap stories over breakfast, clubs hatch big plans over lunch, and the smell of Friartown favorites pulls you in from across campus.

PC Bookstore

There is a spot in Friartown where spirit gear lines every wall and black and white is always in style. Alumni, new Friars and even Huxley the Dalmatian would feel right at home here
