Eclipse Watch Party at the Museum of Natural History in Roger Williams Park

Monday, April 8, 2024. 2:00 – 4:00

The Museum is hosting a FREE watch party for the partial solar eclipse. While Rhode Island is not in the path of totality, it’s close with 90% of the Sun being covered. The eclipse starts at 2:25pm and peaks at 3:30pm. Visit the Museum of Natural History for family-friendly fun and viewing party. Enjoy hands-on activities and more as we gear up for the main event. Each family visiting on April 8 will receive a FREE pair of eclipse viewing glasses, provided by the NASA Rhode Island Space Grant Consortium.
This free community event includes FREE admission to the Museum on Monday, April 8.

It’s not every board meeting that you get to meet a tamandua! 😍

This curious critter made an appearance at the RWPC Board Meeting this morning at the @rwpzoo Education Center. Huge thank you to Amy Roberts, Andrea Stein, Anthony Polite, and Kim Warren from the Zoo team for letting us meet Oblio and sharing so many interesting facts about the tamandua (a type of anteater!). Oblio brought many professional insights to the meeting, too 🐜

Visit the Zoo to learn more about tamanduas and other amazing animals!

Winter walks 🍂> January blues 🥶 Take a walk with us at Roger Williams Park! We visited the trail along Elm Lake near the softball field – a short, easy trail with stunning frosty lake views (especially during golden hour) and woodsy path. Shout-out to @pvdparks for maintaining the many beautiful trails at the Park! 

Before hitting the trail, please note that the only way to access this path is via the Park Avenue entrance while Maple Avenue and Pine Hill Avenue are currently closed. Find parking along Frederick C. Green Memorial Blvd. right when you turn into the park!
Join @rwpmuseum for a Winter Bird Walk Saturday morning at 10 AM! See wintering waterfowl and many more feathered friends during this guided walk. Tickets are $3 (register online). 🦆

Can’t make it tomorrow? Winter Bird Walks also take place February 14 and March 14!
