Adult Craft: Pumpkin Decorating! Tuesday, 10/14 at 5:30pm

Two side-by-side images of decorated pumpkins. In the left-hand image, there are two pumpkins on an elevated platform. The one on the left has a black cat painted on it, with its back arched and no facial features except for a pair of bright yellow eyes. The one on the right has big green eyes with small black pupils; downward-sloping eyebrows; a small, round, upturned nose; and a smirk with two white vampire fangs poking out of its mouth. On the lower level of the platform, there are also two painted pumpkins. The one on the left has downward-drooping green eyes, a big green nose, and a squiggly mouth with stitches across it. There are also some stitches above the pumpkin's left eye. It resembles a cartoonish interpretation of Frankenstein's monster. The pumpkin on the right has narrow, silly-looking yellow eyes with a cross-eyed expression; rounded eyebrows; a big, oval-shaped clown nose; and a squiggly mouth. The right-hand image has three pumpkins. The smallest one is in the foreground. It is white, with paint splatters all over it in blue, orange, red, green, yellow, pink, and purple paint. Behind and to the left of the small white pumpkin is a larger orange pumpkin with decorative, colorful, patterned paper tape, which is creating vertical stripes up and down the pumpkin. There are also some strips of tape forming sig-zag patterns between some of the vertical strips. To the right of that pumpkin, there is a slightly larger orange pumpkin. It has had blue and pink glitter sprinkled all over the top of it. There are some plastic gems glued to the pumpkin, as well as some foam shapes. There are also a few small pom-poms glued to it.

Get festive by decorating small pumpkins with us! The pumpkins will be provided on a first come, first served basis. This craft is for adults. Our events are free and open to the public!
