West Place Animal Sanctuary in Tiverton is opening its gates Friday, November 24 through Sunday, November 26 for its third and final visitors’ weekend of 2023.

Stroll the historic sanctuary grounds and visit the furred and feathered farm animal rescues before winter arrives. Explore the expanded gift shop to find the perfect item for the animal lover who has everything. New hand-crafted and one-of-a-kind items are being created daily by West  Place’s volunteer crafters.

Interactive and educational tours will leave every 30 minutes from 9:30 am to 3 pm, and will last approximately 60 – 90 minutes. Bring the whole family to meet the West Place farm family, and celebrate a season of kindness and compassion. 

Registration is open to all. Advance online registration is recommended at  https://www.westplace.org/visitors-weekends. Tickets are $24 for adults, $15 for children 12 and younger. All proceeds benefit the farm animals and wildlife at West Place Animal Sanctuary. 

West Place is a small non-profit organization that hosts three public visitors weekends each year.  These events provide opportunities for the community to meet the rescued farm animals West Place cares for on a daily basis, and to experience the beauty and tranquility of the 8-acre sanctuary. Staff and volunteers will share animal stories, information, and updates, and guests will learn more about  West Place’s life-saving work and unique mission. Visitors’ weekends also serve as critical fundraisers for an underfunded organization dedicated to underserved animal populations.
