– Explore other playful activity stations like weaving, bubble and water play, wood working, instrument making and parkour.

– Enjoy lively music! Hear the Wheeler School’s jazz ensemble from 12:30-1:30 and by Joe’s Backyard Band from 3-5 PM.

– Join a brief speaking program featuring Mayor Angel Taveras and Providence Children’s Museum executive director Janice O’Donnell at 3 PM.
