SUMMARY:Glow Nights TreeTrails Adventures
DESCRIPTION:Glow Nights in May brings a completely different atmosphere to TreeTrails Adventures Mystic\, turning the aerial adventure park into a glowing nighttime playground every Friday evening throughout May. Running from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.\, the experience transforms the wooded climbing courses into a colorful mix of lights\, music\, and movement as the sun goes down over Mystic. Instead of the usual daytime ropes-course vibe\, the park takes on the feeling of an outdoor nighttime festival tucked into the trees. \nGlow Nights in May mixes adventure with a party-like atmosphere\, complete with glow bracelets\, glowing necklaces\, music\, and illuminated climbing trails suspended high above the forest floor. Guests can move through rope bridges\, zip lines\, and aerial obstacles while surrounded by shifting lights that make the entire park feel almost dreamlike after dark. The experience leans heavily into the fun of summer nights arriving early\, blending adrenaline and playful energy in a way that feels especially geared toward groups of friends\, couples\, teens\, and adventurous families looking for something different to do on a Friday night. \nThe event has become one of TreeTrails’ most popular seasonal experiences\, especially as warmer weather returns to the Connecticut shoreline region. Reservations are strongly recommended because Glow in the Park nights tend to fill quickly once people start sharing videos and photos online. Between the music drifting through the trees\, the glowing equipment\, and the excitement of climbing through the forest at night\, the event delivers the kind of memorable outdoor experience that feels closer to an adventure attraction than a traditional ropes course. \n

Designed as a relaxed social workshop for ages 21 and over\, the event combines pottery instruction with a bring-your-own-drink atmosphere that turns the evening into part art class\, part night out. \nThe workshop begins with a professional wheel-throwing demonstration before participants move into creating their own pottery pieces either on the wheel or through handbuilding techniques.

Clay and firing for up to three finished creations are included as part of the workshop. \nWhat makes Sip ‘N’ Spin stand out is the balance between creativity and atmosphere.

Whether it turns into date night\, friends night out\, or simply an excuse to unplug for a couple of hours\, the workshop offers one of the more unique creative experiences happening on the shoreline this month. \n

SUMMARY:Frosty Drew Observatory and Science Center's Stargazing Nights
DESCRIPTION:Frosty Drew Observatory and Science Center’s Stargazing Nights turn a quiet Friday evening in Ninigret Park into one of the most atmospheric experiences in southern New England. Hosted by Frosty Drew Observatory & Science Center\, the weekly gathering invites visitors to explore the night sky through powerful telescopes while astronomers guide guests across planets\, star clusters\, distant galaxies\, and the glowing band of the Milky Way overhead. Under some of the darkest skies in Rhode Island\, the experience feels less like a formal science program and more like stumbling into a community of people quietly obsessed with the universe. \nAs darkness settles over Ninigret Park\, visitors can expect views that change depending on the season and sky conditions\, often including Saturn’s rings\, Jupiter’s moons\, the cratered surface of the Moon\, and deep space objects rarely visible in brighter suburban areas. The observatory’s Sky Theatre and telescope stations create an immersive environment where curious first-timers mingle with amateur astronomers and longtime stargazers. There’s something strangely calming about standing in near silence while strangers take turns peering into the cosmos\, especially on clear summer nights when the Milky Way stretches visibly across the sky. \nThe observatory typically opens around 8:30 p.m. on Friday nights and remains active through at least 10:30 p.m.\, sometimes later depending on weather and viewing conditions. Because the event is weather dependent\, updates are posted on the day of the event before 3 p.m. Organizers also note that Ninigret Park’s dark sky rules prohibit white light use after dusk in order to protect night vision and sensitive astronomical equipment\, giving the entire area an almost surreal glow of dim red lights and shadowy pathways. Tickets for Frosty Drew Observatory and Science Center’s Stargazing Nights can be purchased by clicking the event link below. \nWhen ticket sales open\, a link to purchase / acquire tickets will be added to the “Cost” field on the event page. Once event capacity is reached\, these fields will be listed as “Sold Out“\, and we will be unable to allow entry to any more guests. \nRules and Suggestions:\n• Guests should avoid using white flashlights\, phone flashlights\, or bright screens after dusk\n• Red light flashlights are encouraged to preserve night vision\n• Bug spray is highly recommended during warmer months due to mosquitoes and insects near the wildlife refuge\n• Weather conditions may affect visibility or event operations\n• Children ages 5 and older require tickets\n• Arriving early is recommended for the best viewing opportunities and parking access \n

SUMMARY:Horseshoe Crab Family Walk at Napatree Point
DESCRIPTION:Horseshoe Crab Family Walk at Napatree Point invites families and nature lovers to explore one of the shoreline’s most fascinating ancient species during a guided outdoor experience on Saturday\, May 30\, June 13\, and June 27 from 9 to 10 a.m. Hosted at the Napatree Point Conservation Area beach entrance on Fort Road in Westerly\, the free program gives participants a chance to learn about horseshoe crabs and their unique role in the coastal ecosystem surrounding Little Narragansett Bay. Presented by The Watch Hill Conservancy\, the walk combines environmental education with a relaxed outdoor experience along one of SW Rhode Island’s most scenic coastal landscapes. \nDuring the guided walk\, participants will discover why horseshoe crabs are often referred to as “living fossils\,” having survived for more than 300 million years. The program also explores the species’ importance to modern medical research as well as their ecological significance to Napatree Point and the surrounding shoreline environment. Set against the dunes\, beaches\, and saltwater views of the conservation area\, the event offers a hands-on opportunity to better understand one of the region’s most unusual and historically resilient marine species. \nDesigned for all ages\, the Horseshoe Crab Family Walk is structured as a 60-minute program\, allowing attendees to take advantage of free parking along Bay Street while spending part of the morning outdoors near the water. Light rain will not cancel the walk\, though severe weather may lead to cancellation notifications by email. Registration is required. \n

SUMMARY:Stonington Village Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Stonington Village Farmers Market has become one of the defining Saturday morning traditions along the Connecticut shoreline\, bringing together local farms\, food vendors\, artisans\, musicians\, and neighbors inside and outside the historic Velvet Mill. Running year-round since becoming a permanent seasonal fixture in 2008\, the market transforms with the seasons\, moving outdoors during the warmer months and indoors during late fall and winter while continuing to serve as a gathering place for the community. \nThe market offers far more than produce stands. Visitors can browse locally grown vegetables and fruits\, cheeses\, baked goods\, meats\, seafood\, maple syrup\, flowers\, mushrooms\, prepared foods\, and handmade crafts while live music plays in the background. The atmosphere feels distinctly coastal New England\, blending small-town community energy with the creativity and food culture that defines Stonington Village. Families\, dog owners\, and longtime locals mingle throughout the morning while vendors showcase everything from handmade soaps and pottery to organic kombucha and Mediterranean cuisine. \nWhat makes the Stonington Village Farmers Market stand out is how deeply connected it feels to the rhythm of the region itself. Some visitors arrive early for greenhouse spinach or fresh seafood before it sells out\, while others come simply to wander with coffee in hand and reconnect with neighbors. Between the local farmers\, prepared food vendors\, musicians\, and rotating artisan booths\, the market has evolved into more than a shopping destination. It has become a weekly community ritual that reflects the character\, creativity\, and agricultural roots of southeastern Connecticut. \nParticipating Vendors & Farms \n\nAPIS VERDI\nBroad Brook Acres\nDavis Farm\nISSA Catering\nJon Fish\nSeacoast Mushrooms\nSugar Maple Farms\nSweet Acre Farm\nWakin’ Up Waggin’\n18th Century Purity Farm\nStonyledge Farm and Studio Farm Products\nSummer Hill Catering\nCato Corner Farm\nTreatzles\nFiber + Mud\nYALLA\n\nSponsors & Organizers \n\nStonington Village Improvement Association (SVIA)\nVelvet Mill\n\n

SUMMARY:“Art Is in the Air” – Noank CT Home & Garden Tour
DESCRIPTION:Brush up on your gardening gloves and dust off your walking shoes this summer. “Art is in the Air” – A Noank\, CT Home & Garden Tour gives you the opportunity to spend an afternoon touring one of Connecticut’s most charming coastal villages AND benefit an organization near and dear to our hearts—the Noank Historical Society. June 27 will be spent touring privately owned homes and gardens on a self-guided walking tour. Participating homes and gardens have been selected for their architectural significance and beautifully landscaped grounds. What better place to paint than out in the open? Many artists will be on hand painting the village’s scenic landscapes and historic homes while visitors tour. \nWhile Noank may be best known as a fishing village and a center for boatbuilding\, it was also a quietly influential art colony at the turn of the twentieth century. Henry Ward Ranger\, Robert Brackman\, Lars Thorsen and Reynolds Beal are just a few of the artists who vacationed or settled in Noank and found endless inspiration in waterfront views\, historic homes\, farms and the working harbor. The Tour celebrates not only Noank’s artistic history\, but the varied architectural styles of homes built by sailors who traveled to distant ports and brought back with them ideas and creative influences from around the globe. \nThere will be something for art enthusiasts\, garden aficionados\, history buffs\, and anyone who loves to discover unique spots along the CT shoreline. From gardens to artists painting “en plein air” to local history\, you will not want to miss this special opportunity to step back in time and experience one of SE Connecticut’s treasured coastal villages. \nParking at Esker Point Beach \n  \n

SUMMARY:Historic Stonington’s Cannon Ball: One If By Land\, Two If By Sea
DESCRIPTION:Historic Stonington’s Cannon Ball: One If By Land\, Two If By Sea returns to Captain Nathaniel B. Palmer House on Saturday\, June 27 for an America 250-inspired evening of cocktails\, auctions\, dining\, and dancing wrapped in Revolutionary-era flair.

SUMMARY:The Blue Man Group
DESCRIPTION:There’s really nothing else quite like Blue Man Group. It’s part concert\, part comedy\, part full-on sensory experience… and somehow it all works without a single word being spoken. The trio of blue-painted performers communicates through rhythm\, movement\, and perfectly timed chaos\, turning everyday objects into instruments and the stage into something that feels alive. It’s weird in the best way… the kind of show where you’re not totally sure what’s coming next\, but you’re locked in from the first minute. \nWhat makes it click is the mix of precision and play. One moment you’re watching a tight\, pounding percussion sequence\, the next you’re laughing at something completely unexpected. Paint flies. Lights pulse. The music builds into something bigger than you expect. It’s high-energy\, a little offbeat\, and surprisingly immersive… especially when the audience becomes part of the experience in ways you don’t see coming. \nLive\, it pulls you in fast and doesn’t let go. You’ll see kids\, adults\, first-timers\, repeat fans… all reacting the same way\, somewhere between laughter and “what did I just watch?” That’s kind of the magic of it. If you’re looking for a night that’s different from the usual concert or comedy show\, something visual\, loud\, and genuinely memorable\, Blue Man Group delivers a show that sticks with you long after it’s over.

SUMMARY:Dance Saturday at THE MISFIT CLUB
DESCRIPTION:Dance Saturday at THE MISFIT CLUB brings late-night dance energy to downtown Mystic every Saturday with DJs\, theme nights\, and a growing nightlife crowd looking for something a little louder after dinner hours wind down around town. Doors open early in the evening before the dance floor fully shifts into party mode at 7:30 p.m.\, with modern dance music and big-city club energy taking over the space for the rest of the night. \nWhile Mystic is often associated with quieter waterfront evenings and laid-back coastal bars\, spots like THE MISFIT CLUB are helping carve out a younger nightlife scene built around DJs\, dancing\, themed parties\, and late-night social crowds. The venue leans into a more playful and high-energy atmosphere than many traditional shoreline spots\, with rotating themes like “Pink Underground” adding an extra layer of unpredictability from week to week. \nFor anyone looking to trade vineyard sunsets and seafood dinners for flashing lights\, dance music\, and a packed floor later in the evening\, Dance Saturday offers one of the more nightlife-focused experiences happening around southeastern Connecticut right now. Organizers encourage guests to follow the club’s Instagram page for updates on upcoming themes\, music\, and special event nights. \n

SUMMARY:The Blue Man Group
DESCRIPTION:There’s really nothing else quite like Blue Man Group. It’s part concert\, part comedy\, part full-on sensory experience… and somehow it all works without a single word being spoken. The trio of blue-painted performers communicates through rhythm\, movement\, and perfectly timed chaos\, turning everyday objects into instruments and the stage into something that feels alive. It’s weird in the best way… the kind of show where you’re not totally sure what’s coming next\, but you’re locked in from the first minute. \nWhat makes it click is the mix of precision and play. One moment you’re watching a tight\, pounding percussion sequence\, the next you’re laughing at something completely unexpected. Paint flies. Lights pulse. The music builds into something bigger than you expect. It’s high-energy\, a little offbeat\, and surprisingly immersive… especially when the audience becomes part of the experience in ways you don’t see coming. \nLive\, it pulls you in fast and doesn’t let go. You’ll see kids\, adults\, first-timers\, repeat fans… all reacting the same way\, somewhere between laughter and “what did I just watch?” That’s kind of the magic of it. If you’re looking for a night that’s different from the usual concert or comedy show\, something visual\, loud\, and genuinely memorable\, Blue Man Group delivers a show that sticks with you long after it’s over.

SUMMARY:Trivia & Taco Tuesday with DJ Trivia RI at Surf Cantina
DESCRIPTION:Trivia & Taco Tuesday with DJ Trivia RI at Surf Cantina turns Tuesday nights in downtown Westerly into a mix of tacos\, drinks\, and friendly competition. With $3 tacos running from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. and trivia kicking off at 7 p.m.\, the weekly event blends casual dinner plans with the kind of lively group atmosphere that keeps tables talking\, laughing\, and debating answers long after the first round begins. \nTrivia & Taco Tuesday with DJ Trivia RI brings a more energetic spin to the usual trivia-night format thanks to DJ Trivia’s fast-moving style and crowd interaction. Teams gather around baskets of tacos and drinks while competing through rounds that can shift from pop culture and music to sports\, movies\, and random knowledge. The setup works especially well inside Surf Cantina’s coastal-inspired atmosphere\, where the laid-back vibe keeps the night social even for people who are mostly there for the tacos and margaritas. \nTuesday nights in Westerly tend to feel quieter before the summer weekend crowds fully arrive\, which gives events like this a strong locals-night feel. Surf Cantina’s Canal Street location adds to that energy\, drawing groups of friends\, coworkers\, and trivia regulars looking for an easy midweek outing that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Between the taco specials\, upbeat trivia atmosphere\, and downtown setting\, the night offers a fun excuse to break up the workweek without overcomplicating it. \n
