Marion's Premier Outdoor Venue

Benefitting Homeless to Home Animal Rescue

We believe community matters.

We believe gathering together—under open skies, beneath trees, around shared moments—is essential to who we are as people. Celebrations, milestones, quiet conversations, and joyful chaos all deserve a place that feels safe, welcoming, and rooted in purpose.

At The Woods, we believe a venue can be more than a space. It can be a heartbeat for connection, compassion, and care—both for people and for animals.

The Woods Park & Pavilion is an outdoor venue where memories are made and meaning is woven in. Every rental, every event hosted here directly supports Homeless to Home Animal Rescue & Cat Sanctuary. This includes helping provide medical care, shelter, and second chances to animals who need them most.

We are locally grounded and deeply invested in the people who walk through our gates—whether you’re hosting a private celebration, planning a wedding, or attending a public event that brings the community together. From weddings and family gatherings to craft shows, festivals, and fundraisers, The Woods is a place where connection happens on every scale.

We strive to be flexible, kind, and collaborative, because we know life—and events—are rarely perfect. But when people come together with intention, they can still be deeply meaningful.

Private Events

Graduation Parties, Baby Showers, Family Reunions, and everything in between! Discover everything The Woods has to offer to make your next event the best one yet.

Weddings

Ceremonies, Receptions, Bridal Showers, and anything else you could possibly imagine to go along with your special day. We take pride in providing a beautiful space for beautiful occasions.

Public Events

Private event rentals can be used to host public events, such as craft shows and festivals. With that in mind, we often host our own public events and fundraisers for Homeless to Home! Make sure to check out our upcoming events.
