Hallows Eve Batty Bash 2025

October 25 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
halloween child's feet

Join us for a fun autumn-themed celebration in an old-fashioned style!  Make your own crafts, fun kids activities and games, watch a spooky shadow puppet show, and enjoy treats from our bake sale!

All our crafts are plastic-free and candy-free, we are using natural materials to make things like witch’s brooms, lavender ghosts, and more. Learn about local bats with our instructor Willow who knows about them!

Our shadow puppet play will be inside the indigenous-style plankhouse and is a little bit spooky but not scary (suitable for all ages.) We will have homemade baked treats (many will be healthy treats) but some may contain nuts, gluten or other allergens. Please feel free to bring your own snack, but we discourage commercial candy at this event. We also plan to serve hot apple cider at this event.

Feel free to wear a costume that is not too scary (no gore or weapons of any kind) and culturally appropriate. Keep in mind this is a family-friendly event and we want to show respect for all cultures and keep things child-focused (no adult themed costumes.)

Let’s make this a special vintage style Hallows Eve celebration!
