Spooktacular 2024
Friday 25, Bullock Museum
So your kid wants a little more to do than just ringing doorbells and getting candy – or maybe mom and dad are the ones seeking a little more spooky substance to this Halloween season. Whatever the case may be, local family hot spot the Bullock provides a perfect spot for mildly frightening fun. With activities like STEM fun and spooky science projects provided by Girlstart and Daniel G. Benes Science Shows respectively, plus tunes from School of Rock’s the B Team, this’ll make all previous holidays look Hallo-weak. – James Scott
Power Tool Pumpkin Carving Workshop
Friday 25, Thinkery
Hearing the words “power tools” in conjunction with Thinkery, the children’s museum, may rightfully raise an eyebrow, but fear not: This one’s for grownups! “Thinkery21” means adults 21 and up can unwind with drinks and explore their creativity by carving pumpkins with rotary carvers, drills, and saws, all under the supervision of experienced staffers. Awards will be handed out for spooky superlatives, and grab a pic with your creation in front of a bewitching backdrop to capture how you let the gourd times roll. – Kat McNevins
