Family Fairy House Hike and Build Workshop

February 18th – 23rd

10:00 am – 12:00 pm & 1:00 – 3:00

Buy your tickets timed HERE
Calling all nature lovers and creative spirits! Join us for a magical outdoor adventure that’s perfect for the whole family during school vacation! Embark on a hike through the woods, where you’ll be inspired by the beauty of nature and collect your own materials—twigs, moss, acorns, leaves, and more—to craft the perfect fairy house. After the hike, head back to the greenhouses where you’ll get to build your very own whimsical fairy house using all the natural treasures you’ve gathered. This hands-on workshop is a fun and creative way to connect with nature while tapping into your imagination.
Return your fairy house to us the last week of March (25th-30th), and we will display your creations during Fairy Garden Days (April 12-27)—this year’s theme is Fungarium: The Mushroom Museum! Think fairies, fungi, and the fantastic world where they both live! Don’t miss out on this family event, celebrating nature and art!
Cost: $75 for a group of up to four people; Members receive a 10% discount! Call (401) 680-5000 to get your discount code.
Materials will be provided (and foraged). Adults are welcome to bring their own snips/pruners to use (some snips/pruners provided). If you have any natural items to bring, please do!

Venue

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/
Calling all beginning and aspiring photographers: join us for a fun and informative fall foliage mobile photography workshop, where Roger Williams Park will be your subject! 

Local photographer and RWPC Program Manager José Ramirez (@jram9808) will offer his expertise and instruction before encouraging participants to explore and apply newly learned techniques to capture the beauty of the Park during the fall season! All you need is the camera on your phone.

This workshop is open to ages 10+, and those under 14 must be accompanied by an adult. This limited-capacity event is capped at 15 people, so RSVP to reserve your ticket before they run out (link in bio)!
