Wee Faerie Village at the Florence Griswold Museum

November 01, 2024 - November 03, 2024

Follow the Faerie House walking trail and marvel at the artistry and magic of over two dozen pint-sized dwellings; going on now until November 3rd, 2024.

This year’s Wee Faerie Village theme?! ‍♂️ Yesterville: A Wee Old-Timey Town! ‍♀️

Everyone has a history, including the wee faerie folk. Inspired by the living history museums in the human world such as Mystic Seaport, Greenfield Village, Sturbridge Village, and Colonial Williamsburg, Yesterville is just the place for the faeries to experience the joys of yesteryear.

You can explore the ways of yesteryear and visit these types of historic spaces: Covered Bridge, Light House, Windmill, Tavern, Town Hall, Inn, Print Shop, Farmstead, Boardinghouse, Blacksmith Shop, Train Station, Stable – and much more!

The event features over two dozen faerie installations as well as a fun roster of special events to compliment the theme.

Since 2009 over 190,000 visitors have immersed themselves in the spirit of imagination and whimsy that comes from visiting at least two dozen pint-sized installations across the Museum’s campus on a perfect autumn day, and this will be no exception!

Watch the Museum’s social media (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube) for special updates and behind the scenes content.

Opening at 10:00 am until 5:00 pm, admission includes access to the Wee Faerie Village outdoor exhibition and the special exhibitions in the Krieble Gallery, as well as the historic Florence Griswold House and the rest of the Museum’s facilities.
