  • Friday, December 22, 5:00 pm, 6:00 pm, and 7:00 pm – Sparkle!

    Sparkle! Enjoy Blithewold’s marshmallow-roasting-Christmas-carol-singing-cocoa-sipping-strolling-through-the-twinkling-garden-paths-fun-for-the-whole-family event at the Gardens located at 101 Ferry Road in Bristol, Rhode Island.

    Free Hot Cocoa. S’mores kits are 1 for $2, and 3 for $5 (a part of the proceeds benefits the Boy Scouts). Carol-singing around the fire performances at 6 and 7 pm.

    The beautifully illuminated Gardens and lavishly decorated Mansion are fragile and can suffer from too many visitors. This year they’ve set up 3 Sparkle sessions at 5 pm, 6 pm and 7 pm that will help us better control the flow of traffic and help preserve the House and Grounds.

  • Through January 1 – Sparkle!

    Blithewold Mansion, Gardens & Arboretum invites you to partake in festive holiday fun for the entire family! Come, stroll through Blithewold’s illuminated Gardens (a special event in itself) and Greenhouse (warm up a bit while you take in the lovely Greenhouse displays), breathe in that crisp winter air, or join our carolers as they spread holiday cheer. There will be carol singing, hot cocoa, and s’mores around roaring bonfires in Blithewold’s Enclosed Garden.

    Each Friday night a different group will present two performances of carol singing, from 6:15 p.m. to 6:45 p.m. & 7:15 p.m. to 7:45 p.m. around the bonfire. The event, taking place at 101 Ferry Road in Bristol, Rhode Island, runs through January 1. For more information call 401-253-2707, or visit www.blithewold.org.
