The Cheshire Library, Artsplace and Cheshire Parks & Recreation Department are working together to bring you a fun-filled Halloween event!

Bring your own pumpkin to turn into a Jack-O-Lantern and display on the Mixville hillside before you take it home. Artsplace instructors and volunteers will be on-hand to provide stencils and guidance. Carving tools provided for use on first come/first served basis (or bring your own) as well as glow sticks to illuminate the pumpkins. Pumpkin carving and decorating will take place 5:00-6:00pm (*pre-registration required for this portion of the event). Pumpkins will be lit by 6:15pm.

To add to the fun, Parks and Recreation are sponsoring a Howl-o-ween Dog Costume Contest from 5:30-6pm!  Bring your dog on a leash and in costume to the Mixville Halloween Bash to participate.  Dogs must be friendly with other dogs and up to date on all of their shots. You will be asked to parade your dog around a designated loop, while our guest judges make their decisions. Winners will be awarded small prizes and hear plenty of "AWWWs".

The movie Monsters Inc will start at dusk. Bring a picnic dinner, your blankets, chairs and some bug spray! Don't forget to bring your pumpkins! Visit the www.cheshirelibrary.org in case of inclement weather and to preregister.
