Spring Community Clean-Up at the Japanese Garden
Brenton Point State Park | Newport, RI
The Friends of Brenton Point invite all of us to join them for a Spring Community Clean-Up Day at the Japanese Garden at Brenton Point State Park.
This volunteer event marks the first step in a larger effort to restore the Japanese Garden and to launch a future non-profit organization dedicated to preserving this space as a place of U.S.–Japan friendship, cultural exchange, and community connection.
Their long-term vision is to rebuild the garden as a cultural home where people can experience Japanese aesthetics, learn from one another, and gather for future cultural programs and events that bring Japan and the United States closer together.
Date: Sunday, March 1, 2026
Time: 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Location: Japanese Garden, Brenton Point State Park - Ocean Drive, Newport, RI
