Creative Arts is celebrating its 2nd Annual PumpkinFest Family Festival and Fundraiser on Saturday, October 26, 2024, at 5:00-7:00 pm at Creative Arts, 25 Woburn Street in Reading. Pumpkinfest is free and open to the public regardless of the weather. All are welcome!
Creative Arts invites the Reading community, its surrounding towns and communities to this exciting event. There will be Halloween and Fall themed activities, games, and events, such as Halloween Arts & Crafts, Face Painting, a Best Halloween Costume Contest, Best Pumpkin Contest (carved or decorated), food and music!
We will be doing our Pumpkinfest Raffle where you can purchase raffle tickets for a selection of baskets and gifts.

The Best Pumpkin contestants can drop off their entries to the Creative Arts office starting Friday, October 25, between 3-6pm, or on Saturday, October 28 between 10am-5pm. PLEASE NO CANDLES. We will provide LED lights. All pumpkins will be on display outside in our Jack O'Lantern Pumpkin Patch under the Big Sanborn Street Tree. Contestants must be present when the winner is announced at 6 pm at the Pumpkin Patch.
The Halloween Costume Parade will take place in the Guild Theater at approximately 6:30 pm (adult, teen, child categories). All contestants are encouraged to be creative, spooky, over-the-top, thematic, artistic, but mostly, to have fun! Contestants must be present. Winners will be announced live.
Please join us!
