Sensory-Friendly Nights at Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular

October 21 and October 22, 5-6 PM
Roger Williams Park Zoo

Join us for a special sensory-friendly Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular an hour before the trail opens to the public: designed for those with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and sensory processing differences and their families on October 21 & October 22 from 5:00 – 6:00 pm. For maximum enjoyment, the over 5000 pumpkins will light up the Zoo’s Wetlands Trail, but there will be no music or special effects. We recommend that you and your family arrive early to enjoy the experience for as long as you can, as the music and lights will turn on promptly at 6:00 pm.

Please Note: Tickets for this hour are only available IN PERSON at the Zoo’s admissions booth the evening of the event. Ticket prices are $16 for adults; $13 for children (ages 2-12); toddlers 1 and under are always free.

Sponsored by ABA Centers of Rhode Island

Thank you, RWP family!!! We may not have reached our goal, but all of you got us to over $7,000 – more than twice as much as last year! 🌳🎉

Whether you donated, shared our page with friends, liked our posts, or sent good vibes our way, we appreciate your support and investment in the People's Park! A gift to Roger Williams Park Conservancy builds and strengthens social and civic connections in a public green space we all share and steward. 

With @pvdparks and our Park partners, we can't wait to show you another year of programming, community-building, and fun! 🌞

If you donated $100 or more, watch your email over the next week for an invite to a party celebrating you at the @rwpboathousecafe! 🥂
