Free Day at the Zoo – Roger Williams Park Zoo is offering free admission to all on Friday, December 27 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Visitors are encouraged to share the holiday spirit with the community by bringing non-perishable food items to benefit the Rhode Island Community Food Bank that day. Cardi’s Furniture & Mattresses is generously donating a truck and staff to help collect all food items and deliver everything to the R.I. Food Bank. Look for the Cardi’s truck in the Zoo’s main parking lot. It might be chilly, but many of the animals at Roger Williams Park Zoo enjoy the cooler temperatures, including the adorable red pandas, captivating snow leopards, and delightful moon bears all on the Marco Polo Trail.
