DIY Halloween Costume -  Make your Halloween costume dreams come true! Bring your ideas and we can help with basic costume construction at this special Halloween open house. We will have a selection of garments and textile scraps available from our Trash School waste stream. Using your creative superpowers, transform these items and give them another life! Papier-mâché supplies and support are available for those looking to build pieces that can be later painted at home. Basic supplies, instruction, and immaculate vibes will be provided. Come and go as you please 10am-1pm. 

This fall-themed event is a great caregiver-and-child art play date or fun for the whole family. Youth 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult. Activity suggested for ages 6+.
