Create Your Own Halloween Mask
Saturday, October 28, 2017, 01:30pm - 03:30pm |
This hands-on activity is open to children of all ages and is free, though a $5 donation is suggested. Materials for the hands-on activity will be provided; registration is suggested to ensure enough materials are provided. The now popular custom of wearing costumes and masks was imported to America from European immigrants, particularly the Irish. Traditionally, masks were worn when leaving the house on All Hallow’s Eve so that individuals would not be bothered by the spirits who visited the earth. At the end of the activity, you will have your own spooky mask, just in time for trick-or-treating!
