We are excited to partner with the 𝙀𝙖𝙨𝙩 𝘼𝙪𝙧𝙤𝙧𝙖 𝘽𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝘽𝙪𝙨 to bring this fun new game to Founder's Day Family Picnic June 6, 4:30-7:30pm! Gaga ball is a fast-paced, high-energy variation of dodgeball played inside an octagonal pit. Players use their hands to hit a soft ball, aiming to strike opponents below the knee to eliminate them. The last remaining player in the pit wins the round!

The Bike Bus is a group of families who bike to Parkdale Elementary once a week in the spring and fall. The ride encourages a healthy, active lifestyle, independence, and community engagement. Take a ride to the Roycroft Campus to grab your tickets, or give us a call 716-655-0261!

We're thrilled to partner with the 𝙍𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙊𝙪𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙘𝙝 𝘾𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧 for our 6th annual 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿’𝘀 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝗙𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗣𝗶𝗰𝗻𝗶𝗰. The ROC’s mission is to break the cycle of rural poverty by accompanying people toward self-sufficiency. Rural poverty is called the invisible poverty because it is hidden and dispersed across a wide geographic area, making it difficult to provide services. The ROC is here to fill that service gap.

This year children can participate in building a community quilt! This is a new addition to Founder’s Day and it’s sure to be a hit, don’t miss it! Buy your tickets now for 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝟲 from 𝟰:𝟯𝟬-𝟳:𝟯𝟬𝗽𝗺 on the Roycroft Campus great lawn.

Today we remember the tragic sinking of the 𝘙𝘔𝘚 𝘓𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘢 𝘰𝘯 𝘔𝘢𝘺 7, 1915. Pictured is an original newspaper published by the Buffalo News on May 8, 1915 generously donated to us this spring by Mark and Kristy Bradish.

Among those lost on the sinking of the Lusitania were Elbert Hubbard, and his wife, Alice. Hubbard’s legacy lives on through the ideals of craftsmanship, creativity, and community that continue to define 'Roycroft' today.
