The session runs one hour; additional time spent in Botanical Center is encouraged but requires purchasing a ticket in person or online.

Venue

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!
Calling all love birds! 💖 Has Roger Williams Park been a part of your love story? Did you get married or engaged at one of its many beautiful sites or simply enjoy rejuvenating strolls with a loved one on the paths every day? For Valentine's Day next month, we want to hear about it!

Follow the link in bio to fill out a short survey about what the most romantic place at the Park is, and share your love story for a chance to be featured on social media and/or our newsletter in February!
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!
