Thank you to Ainsley Daley and the Wickford Art Association for bringing the North Kingstown Educational Foundation on board to assist with this year’s 58th Wickford Art Festival. We had over 40 NKEF volunteers donate their time to park cars, sell water, pass out books and make Wave Art during the Festival at Wilson Park . Our sincere thanks are given to each and every one of them. Without their support we would not have been able to successfully park over 1,800 cars and sell over 1,500 bottles of water during the weekend festival. All proceeds will directly benefit NKEF and the WAA.
We couldn’t have done it without you NKEF Volunteers!
Thank you !
For more information about the NKEF and our upcoming events, please visit us at nkefoundation.org.
Come check out the NKEF at the Wickford Art Festival this weekend!We are located at both Informational booth areas designated (I & R) on the map.2021 Wickford Art Festival Map

We are also managing the Wilson Park parking lot ($10 suggested donation) for both days. All proceeds raised benefit both the NKEF and the Wickford Art Association Scholarship Fund.
Come and enjoy a fun day at the Festival, a Wickford tradition that will be colorful and inspiring!! We hope to see you there!!
Congratulations to the families and students of the North Kingstown School district for completing this school year. We know it wasn’t easy but you did it. You should be so proud of yourself for your perseverance, strength, and your love of learning. The year has definitely taught us many things but the most important thing is something that Christopher Robin said to Winnie the Pooh: “You are BRAVER than you believe, STRONGER than you seem, and SMARTER than you think.” (A.A. Milne) Never forget it!!! Enjoy this well deserved summer break and don’t forget your sunscreen!!!

2. Wilson Park parking We are collecting a $10 donation for parking at the Wilson park entrance. We will also be managing the parking areas and general traffic control. We are in need of 6 people per shift per day.
3. Kids Wave Art Table We are hosting a tented table next to one of the Water tents where children can come and create their own wave art. This is a no cost activity. We will be taking pictures of these creations so we can use them for our Wave mosaic project. No paint. This is a create and carry project. We are in need of 2 people per shift per day.
This is a great way for you to support the NKEF with a small commitment of just 2 hours or more. It is also a great opportunity for some in-person service hours for anyone who might need them. Get ahead of your upcoming service hour requirements for school or church. We would be happy to sign a form or two for you.
As you can see – we are in need of many, many volunteers to make this a success…… Please click on the station you would like to volunteer for and it will direct you straight to the signup genius.
