The mystical and magical take over the greenhouses for this family and community event.  This annual event is perfect for old and young alike.  Over 6500 people attend each year to be inspired with these whimsical creations from nature.  Community members bring their handcrafted houses to our Botanical Center to help us create miniature villages where fairies, gnomes and DRAGONS reside.  The houses are hidden among the tropical plants and foliage.  It is a true delight when children find their own creations nestled in a tiny village with other fairy homes.

Featured artists this year include noted Rhode Island painter, Mike Bryce showcasing his Painted Garden and Cat Riker, a fairy home designer and artist.  Additional events include craft workshops, special performances with the Providence Ballet Theater, children’s crafts and activities, and beautiful creations from local artists.

We're so excited to welcome Julie Gearan back for another Slow Looking in Color and Line workshop at Roger Williams Park! This time, we're gathering at the Rose Garden (near the Elmwood Ave. entrance, and across the street from the Betsey Williams Cottage) on Sunday, October 18, 12-2 PM.

Just bring yourself, your creative spirit, and a chair (if you'd like) to this free drawing workshop. All experience levels welcome, and supplies are provided!

Thank you to @risca1967 for helping make this event possible!
Whether you're a mom, or appreciate a mom in your life, we want to see you at a film screening of No Country for Mothers on October 22 at 6 PM!

Roger Williams Park Conservancy is hosting a screening of this impactful documentary created by @momsfirstus about what motherhood looks like in America today, at the @rwpbotanicalcenter. 

Joining us for the screening and a Q&A panel after the film are representatives from local organizations @collectiveactionri, @rikidscount, and @unitedwayri. This open dialogue and opportunity for resource-sharing is designed to embody the film's premise: that motherhood in America is not a private struggle but a collective one. 

This event is free and open to the public! Learn more and RSVP online (link in bio): https://www.rwpconservancy.org/event/film-screening-of-no-country-for-mothers/
