Pumpkin Painting & Jazz Guitar

Come paint pumpkins with us! We decided paint was a tad safer than serrated knives for the kids, but all ages are welcome:-) We provide acrylic paint, brushes and some stencils and decorations, and you can either bring your own pumpkin or buy one of ours. Registration in advance is appreciated so we know how many people to prepare for – you can call, email or let us know in person. (There is no fee, just the cost of a pumpkin if needed.) Make sure you wear old clothes – acrylic paint is pretty permanent!

Whether you’re painting or not, you can enjoy beautiful jazz guitar played by Millard Deutsch from 2-4pm!
