Send Your Jack ‘O Lantern Soaring!
Are you wondering what to do with that adorable Jack ‘O Lantern after Halloween? Well, wonder no more! Join us at the Putnam Museum on November 1 for a spectacular pumpkin launch event that promises to be a blast! Bring your carved creations and watch as we send them soaring through the air with a giant trébuchet (that’s fancy talk for catapult!) right onto the Putnam’s South Lawn!
While here, join us in celebrating Dia De Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) in our Grand Lobby. We’ll have a variety of activities that honor this beautiful tradition, celebrating the lives of those who have passed with joy and creativity.
Saturday, November 1
Putnam Grand Lobby & South Lawn
1 pm – 4 pm
The pumpkin launch is a FREE event.
Museum admission, movies and add-ons will be regular price.
