Help Us Give The Fred a Fresh Coat of Paint!

Saturday, December 5 | 9–11 AM

We're trading our gardening gloves for paintbrushes! Join Team Fred for a morning of indoor improvements as we freshen up some of the hardworking spaces inside our historic garden building.

We'll be painting interior doors and bathroom baseboards, tackling those small but important details that make a big difference in how our building looks and feels. It's not glamorous work, but a little fresh paint goes a long way!

No painting experience necessary. Whether you're a meticulous painter who loves a perfectly straight edge or someone who's simply happy to lend a hand, there's a job for you. We'll provide all the paint, brushes, supplies, and everything else you'll need, along with hot coffee, cocoa, and some treats to keep everyone going.

Volunteer to paint at The Fred!

Come for an hour or stay for the whole morning. It's a relaxed, friendly way to spend a Saturday, meet some wonderful people, and help care for one of Norfolk's most beloved public gardens.

The Fred is maintained by volunteers, and keeping our historic building looking its best is just as important as caring for the gardens outside. Every improvement, no matter how small, is part of the transformation we're making together.

This Is Your Garden. Come Grow With Us!
