Join us at Lytton Plaza on Friday, October 29 from 3:30p-5:30p and get your pumpkin carving on! This workshop is available for ghost, ghouls, and goblins of all ages! (Parents must stay with their child if they are under the age of 12.) All carved jack-o-lanterns must be turned over to Palo Alto Recreation staff by 5:30pm to be part of our Jack-O-Jaunt display and contest. You may pick up your jack-o-lantern at the end of the event, please just notify our recreation staff that you will be picking it up.
By signing up to participate in the workshop, all registered participants will receive 1 pumpkin, access to carving tools, paints, and other jack-o-lantern decorating accessories.
To sweeten the pot, the community will be able to vote for their favorites in the following four categories:
- Scariest
- Cutest
- Most Creative
- Best Overall
The winner in each of these categories will be eligible to receive a $75 gift card to a Palo Alto store of their choosing.
All jack-o-lanterns entered are eligible to win!
Prizes are sponsored by the Palo Alto Recreation Foundation.
