Bring the family together for an afternoon of pumpkins, creativity, and fall fun in the Living Canvas Garden!

Generations in the Garden: Pumpkin Carving & Painting is a free, all-ages event designed for families, friends, and generations to create side by side. Choose a pumpkin and make it your own—whether you want to carve a classic jack-o’-lantern, get creative with paint and markers, or try something completely different.

Choose Your Pumpkin Project

🎃 Carve Your Own
Choose a smaller pumpkin, sketch your design, then scoop and carve your creation.

🎃 No-Mess Carving
Want the fun of carving without cleaning out the pumpkin first? Choose a larger, pre-hollowed pumpkin that's ready for you to design and carve.

🎨 Paint & Markers
Skip the carving and create a colorful pumpkin using paint or markers. Painted pumpkins will receive a clear seal to help protect your artwork.

All ages and skill levels are welcome. Children should participate with an accompanying adult.

The event is free, with a suggested $5 donation. Up to 50 pumpkins will be available, so advance registration is encouraged to help us plan and make sure we have enough supplies for everyone.
