The Providence Department of Recreation kicked off the Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular at Roger Williams Zoo with a night full of excitement for local kids. Families gathered to check out hundreds of glowing pumpkins, each one carved with incredible detail and creativity.

Children had the opportunity to explore the displays, posing for pictures with their favorite pumpkins, and enjoying the festive atmosphere. The event not only brought out the fall spirit but also gave kids a memorable evening of fun.

The launch was a huge success, with laughter and smiles filling the air. The Providence Department of Recreation was thrilled to see such a great turnout and can’t wait for more families to join in the fun throughout the season.

With plenty more nights ahead, the Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular promises to continue being a highlight of the fall season.
