Ken Means Carousel

🐇

New week, new magic! ✨ Nothing beats the joy of waving to friends and family on the Carousel of Dreams!

Come spin with us this week and take a ride on your favorite animal! We’ll be back open Wednesday from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m.! We’re closed today and Tuesday for maintenance on our beautiful carousel and for private events.

Meet ... Punch the Goat! 🐐 Designed by students with one very specific request for Ken Means’ class, Punch quickly became a standout in the Carousel of Dreams menagerie.

His bold personality carried into the painting process, as Punch features one of the fastest paint jobs Ken Means Carousel has ever completed. Next time you take a spin, look for this student-inspired, one-of-a-kind goat adding extra magic to the ride.

Punch the Goat was generously adopted in memory of Truett Foster McKeehan. (The G.O.A.T.)

The winter storm has changed our hours this week! ❄️ It’s been a difficult few days, and we’re here to help spread a little magic and joy with our community. Please visit only if you can safely reach , as many roads are still icy. Use extra caution.

We hope to see you today starting at 11 AM! 🎠
