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.

As the seasons begin to change, it`s a great time to reconnect with the natural world and slow down. We`re excited to partner with the @rwpbotanicalcenter to offer a free Forest Bathing (Shinrin Yoku) session on September 19 at 10 AM with Lee Ann. This guided experience invites you to breathe deeply, notice your surroundings, and open your senses to the sights, sounds, textures, and rhythms of the forest.

Lee Ann Freitas is the director of the Botanical Center and a Certified Forest Therapist, horticulturist, and a hardcore advocate for all things nature. She creates a welcoming and peaceful environment for participants to slow down, connect with nature, and be present.

The session is free, but registration is limited – sign up online (link in bio)!
