Consistently rated the best local scavenger hunt since 2016!
Puzzling Adventures are a cross between a scavenger hunt, an adventure race, and an informative self-guided walking tour. Each adventure consists of a series of locations that you are guided to where you are required to answer a question or solve a puzzle to receive your next instruction. Compete as a group, individually or create multiple teams and race each other. Almost all of our adventures are designed to be wheelchair and stroller friendly and all are carefully crafted to be entertaining and informative with something to appeal to all ages. Complete the adventure as quickly as possible to win first place or take your time and enjoy the journey. Price is per team, not per person. Groups can be any size, but small groups are recommended for the best experience.

Birds have lured Zach Adams on adventures in varied ecosystems throughout New England, across the United States, and even abroad. He has trudged through alder swamps, trotted through bogs, and canoed oxbows of the Housatonic River. Throughout his career in conservation— working with National Audubon, Mass Audubon, and Northwest Connecticut Land Conservancy, and now Trout Unlimited— Zach’s knowledge and enthusiasm have helped hundreds of people connect with birds.
His debut book, published this June, is a comprehensive guide to the birds of New England. Join us as he talks about the making of the book, his experiences as a local birder, helpful tips on all aspects of birding, and more!
Solo art show by Massachusetts-based artist Alanna Saunders, showcasing original paintings and prints. Her light-filled landscapes capture the serenity of various places in New England, and her portraiture is dominated by vibrant colors. "When you take away the ability to process skin tone realistically, it allows us to admire the subject's features without being distracted by whatever subconscious biases we might have," Saunders, age 20, says. "I want my art to remind people that color is merely one example of beauty, not the definition of it." For more information: https://alannasaunders.com or http://instagram.com/alannasaunders.art/ Event runs 8/22-24 and 8/29-31. Fridays 5-9 p.m.; Saturdays and Sundays 11 a.m. - 3 p.m.
