Join Us for Spooky Museum 2016
We're Going Batty Over Halloween
The Bartow History Museum is being transformed into the Spooky Museum for our next Museum After Dark event, according to Nicole Masters, Manager of Programs. On Saturday, October 15, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., all fairies, pirates, monsters, princesses, and others of their ilk are invited to join us. Come in costume or come as you are. Get your face painted, play games, create a craft, and partake of tasty treats, if you dare! Visit the exhibit gallery to see some eerie museum visitors, creepy crawlies, and spooky surprises. Vote for your favorite pumpkin in our pumpkin decorating contest to determine which will win the title of “The Great Pumpkin.” “This is a night your kids won’t want to miss,” says Masters. As a special treat, we are giving participants the opportunity to take home their favorite decorated pumpkin in this year’s silent auction, “The Pick of the Patch.” For more information on Spooky Museum or details concerning donating a decorated pumpkin, or bidding on one, please visit www.BartowHistoryMuseum.org. Watch for photos on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram showing this year’s entries or stop by the museum to see them in person.
Tickets are $5 and are available at www.BartowHistoryMuseum.org or at the door. Price of admission to the museum includes all activites for Spooky Museum. All Fraidy Cats welcome!
