Remember the VERY cool pumpkin display at the Beulah Brinton House a couple of years back?
Well, this year it returns from the dead!
Rush mor Records, Bird Ladder, Studio Q, Milwaukee County Parks and the BVNA are working hard to revive the Pumpkin Pavilion this year! Its new location will be at the Humboldt Park Pavilion, from Oct 24 - 26th, 6:00 - 10:00 each night. In addition to hundreds of festive pumpkins on display, there will be food and beverages available, live bands (Friday 7-9 Testa Rosa, Sat 8-9:30 John the Savage), kids activities, movie showings, and more! All neighbors are invited to help carve the pumpkins at the following socials:
Tuesday, Oct 21st - 5:00- 9:00 - Bella's Fat Cat
Wednesday, Oct 22nd - 6:00 - 10:00 - Club Garibaldi
Thursday, Oct 23rd - 6:00 - 9:00 - Humboldt Park Pavilion. This event will also be the Fall Membership Social for all BVNA Members.
