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!

From family picnics in the Rose Garden and concerts at the Bandstand to seeing the cherry blossoms bloom in the Japanese Garden every spring and sled-riding in the winter, Roger Williams Park is the backdrop of so many memories year-round, and even more opportunities to escape into nature, connect with neighbors, and attend events in the future! 🌸☃️🍂🌳

With your continued support this #GivingTuesday2025, and collaborating with @pvdparks , we can’t wait to offer even more free family-friendly programming, make accessibility upgrades and restorations of historic structures, steward critical green spaces, and more in 2026.

#GivingTuesday2025 is just around the corner, and we get it – there are so many wonderful local nonprofits seeking support this time of year!

Why include Roger Williams Park Conservancy in your giving plan? 

Behind the more than 50 free and low-cost programs hosted every year, the restoration of beloved historic structures still playing a role in the community today, and the expansive green spaces and waterways sustaining humans and wildlife alike, there are crucial partnerships and much hard work that goes into stewarding Roger Williams Park.

As Board Member Chris Lanen shares – and so many families can relate to! – "the Park provides [a] retreat into nature. Individually, it gives me a place to exercise and decompress. As a parent, it gives my child a magical place to play, explore, and learn throughout the year.”

Find the link to donate in our bio, with options for one-time or recurring gifts!
To all those celebrating, happy Thanksgiving from RWPC! Don’t forget: our trails and paths are always available for a rejuvenating post-feast walk! 🍂

We would love to hear what you’re thankful for about Roger Williams Park – is it a favorite piece of architecture or a serene place to retreat into nature? A favorite event or family outing that’s become a tradition? Let us know!
