Give your old costumes new life, or make a mask to incorporate with your everyday clothes for a fun homemade costume. Under 7? You need to bring an adult for hot glue needs!

On October 10th be on the lookout for a costume sale AND a free clothing swap 2-5pm. We will have local dj Bodhiterra sharing some vibes while a small selection of costume items will be on sale. We will also feature an area of free clothes to swap. Bring any clean and extra garments you want to trade out. Or just come and peruse and shop what's available from other participants.

This Friday get your kids over to Scrap Collective for some lantern-making fun!

Seriously, this is your chance parents- take a night off, go out, stay in, do whatever you want to! Food will also be provided - pizza,lemonade and cookies 🍕🧃🍪

Kids 7 and up can come and make a homemade lantern using rescued and repurposed materials from Scrap Collective’s Creative Reuse Center. STEM educator Dr Elizabeth Larsen will guide children through safe, hands on projects that turn *would-be trash* into glowing art.

Then on October 24 come out to our Halloween Lantern Festival and Parade to showcase their workshop creations and costumes! We’re looking forward to seeing you there! 🏮🍂👻🎃💀🍁
