This year’s Wee Faerie Village theme is 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.

Beginning September 28 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 will feature at least two dozen faerie installations as well as a fun roster of special events to compliment the theme.

Since 2009 over 175,000 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!
