During this FREE family-friendly drop-in event, come celebrate Halloween at Thurber House with a variety of interactive and creative activities that are fun for all ages!

You can stop by any time between 1:00-3:00 pm, but you must RSVP by clicking the red “register” button.

This event is best suited for ages 6+ (minors must have at least one adult with them). You can participate in as many activities as you like. Costumes are welcome!

Note: While our decorations are Halloween-inspired, this event is not a scary “haunted house” attraction. We do advise parental discretion if your child is easily spooked by Halloween decorations and ghost stories.

Parking on Jefferson Avenue: Free, easy street parking is available all along the Jefferson Avenue oval. Note: only the spots along the one-way oval are free; the spots along the two-way ends of Jefferson Avenue (near Broad Street and Long Street) are not free.
Parking off N. 11th Street (behind Thurber House): Free visitor parking is available in the small lot directly behind Thurber House, accessible off N. 11th Street and located here.
