About the event

Get ready for a fun and whimsical day out! We’ll spend the morning “troll hunting” at Dorothea Dix Park, exploring the larger-than-life sculptures and snapping plenty of photos along the way. We’ll pause mid-adventure for a cozy coffee break at House of Many Porches Market, then head back out to track down even more trolls. Afterward, enjoy free time in Village District for shopping and a delicious lunch. It’s the perfect blend of art, exploration, and a little retail therapy! This trip will involve a fair amount of walking, including time on uneven terrain, natural trails, and grassy areas throughout the park. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended, as some areas may be unpaved or slightly challenging to navigate. Res $21 Non-Res $32 Activity Code 2454401_14
