This October, the Please Touch Museum is hosting a family event that's great for all ages! On Saturday, October 12th for Pumpkinpalooza, a delightful celebration of all things fall and a fantastic day out for Philly families.
Once you've chosen your pumpkin, we’ll provide a special bag for easy transport. Ready to get a little messy and a lot creative? For only $5, you can purchase a pumpkin pass that allows you to scoop out your pumpkin and prepare it for carving. Bring your imagination and let those creative juices flow as you carve a jack-o'-lantern in good company.
Comments will be approved before showing up.
