PumpkinPalooza! Coming To Hungerford Park In Berlin

Trail walks will be lit by pumpkins.

 

This October the New Britain Youth Museum at Hungerford Park presents, PumpkinPalooza!

On October 13th, Hungerford's trails will be transformed with hundreds of lit pumpkins. Trail walks will begin with a dusk walk at 5:45pm for younger children and continue until the last group departs at 7:30pm. Learn about halloween traditions and gaze at the many carved creations. After your walk, continue your night inside the museum where you can make autumn crafts and explore our many exhibits. Food will also be available.
