The Newport Mansions will welcome families for fun and creative activities on Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout July and August.
Traveling Tuesdays will occur every Tuesday from July 9 through August 20 from 10:30-11:30 a.m. Each program will take place at a different Newport Mansions property and will have a different theme, from wildlife conservation to Colonial-era toys to collecting things and much more. Young participants will learn about the theme and create a craft from the provided supplies.
Thursdays in the Garden will take place from July 11 through August 22 from 10:30-11:30 a.m. at Green Animals Topiary Garden in Portsmouth, R.I. Children will enjoy the outdoor space and gardens and learn about nature, from bees to butterflies to growing plants. There will always be a creative and active element in the morning’s activities.
Children will receive a stamp in their Newport Mansions Passport for each program. After receiving four stamps, they will receive a prize.
Advance registration is required for each program. The activities target children ages 5 to 7 and their caregivers. Older and younger siblings are also welcome.
