Families are invited to join Ascension All Saints Family Health Center for the fourth annual Wellness Wonderland on August 29, 2026 from noon to 4 p.m. at the Ascension Family Health Center, 2400 W. Villard Ave Milwaukee, WI 53209.
This free, family-friendly mental health fair combines fun activities with practical resources to help children and adults build healthy coping skills and support their emotional well-being.
Wellness Wonderland is designed to make conversations about mental health comfortable, positive and accessible for the whole family.
“Wellness Wonderland was created to help normalize conversations surrounding mental health and help every person realize they are not alone,” said Dr. Sabrina Ali. “Life can be hard, but we can navigate life’s stressors when we speak up and stand together as a community. This event helps us spread love, light and support.”
Families can enjoy carnival-style activities, including face painting, henna, popcorn and a dunk tank, while also exploring resources and activities focused on wellness. Activities include yoga, meditation, art therapy, animal therapy, CPR and breathing exercises.
“By creating a space that feels like a celebration, we’re helping families learn and practice healthy resilience in a comfortable and welcoming environment,” said Jenny Ovide, RN.
The event will also offer free mental health resources, wellness education and practical strategies for managing stress and emotions. A backpack and school-supply giveaway will help local students start the new school year prepared.
More than 200 people attended last year’s Wellness Wonderland, demonstrating the community’s interest in accessible mental health resources and family-focused wellness activities.
Join Ascension Wisconsin for an afternoon of fun, connection and wellness at Wellness Wonderland. Families can enjoy activities together while learning simple ways to support mental and emotional well-being at home, at school and in the community.
