Come for an afternoon of indoor carnival fun for the whole family! (Snow date Sun, March 1)! First Parish Church of Stow & Acton is hosting a lively, all-ages carnival filled with games, face painting, prizes, and treats—all in a warm, welcoming indoor space.
Free admission! Carnival game tickets are $1 each, and each game costs just 1 ticket to play. With over three dozen carnival games, there’s something for everyone. Try our life-size Whack-a-Mole, Plinko, Pop Bottle Stand-Up, Life-Size Tetris, and an “impossible” giant sliding puzzle. Many of the games are handcrafted creations built by FPC members and youth. Game difficulty ranges from toddler-friendly (ages 2+) to fun challenges for teens and adults who are young at heart.
Every child will go home with at least one stuffed animal prize. Snacks and beverages—including popcorn, cookies, lemonade, and more—will be available for purchase throughout the event.
For everyone’s safety, parent or guardian supervision is required during the event. Our event is staffed by FPC volunteers and high school volunteers.
Our building is designed to be inclusive and accessible to people of all abilities, including wheelchair users. There is plenty of free parking. More info is here.
