Do you have last year’s Halloween costume in the back of the closet? The year before? A whole box? Bring them down to Riverside Curiosities! The WNCALKids! gang is hosting their 2nd annual costume give-away for those in need.

What to bring:
Costumes~ whole is best, but partial will work, too!
Wigs~ Clean, any color, any style.
Accessories~ Funky hats, masks, costume jewelery, feather boas, anything that will help to bring a costume together
Make-up kits~ New, unused, please.
Trick-or-Treak bags or buckets
Yourself!~ We are always in need of volunteers to help
