Give a Gift to the Future of Fairytale Town
Over sixty years ago, our community came together to bring Fairytale Town to life! And they did it with donations both large and small. As one billboard put it, “Your dimes and dollars are needed.”
Since opening day, more than 10 million children and adults have streamed into Fairytale Town, where they have made countless memories, made connections with children’s literature, and learned through play.
Once again, we are asking for the support of our community to begin a new chapter: Creating an expanded Fairytale Town with new amenities and features! While we’ve served four generations well, Fairytale Town needs enhancements to meet the needs of our community.
