Spooky Noodles and Pumpkin Doodles

Spooky Noodles and Pumpkin Doodles is a free family-friendly event where kids can enjoy the festive spirit of Halloween with creative food and art activities! Children will take home a free pumpkin, craft their own spooky pasta, and explore fun, Halloween-inspired pasta art projects. Additional activities include Halloween-themed food crafts and art stations, making this event a perfect way for families to celebrate the season.

Drawing inspiration from Italian traditions, the event honors the deep connection between food, family, and remembrance.

In Italy, particularly in southern regions, food is central to honoring the deceased around All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day, which closely align with Halloween.

Traditional Italian treats like "Ossa dei Morti" (Bones of the Dead) cookies and pasta dishes bring families together during this time, much like our event brings children and families together for creativity, fun, and a nod to Italian heritage.
