CRESTVIEW — Children can paint pumpkins 6-7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 27 at the Crestview Public Library.
The event — for ages 4 and up — is free, but families need to bring a pumpkin and wear old clothes in case there are stains. Library staffers recommend bringing small pie pumpkins, which are more affordable and easier to handle, especially when wet.
In addition, you may want to bring a box to help transport the wet pumpkin home.
Friends of the Library provided funds for the paint.
Registration is required for this event. Call 682-4432 or visit the library, 1445 Commerce Drive, to sign up.
