Thu 10/27 @ 4 – 8PM
Since 2004 the Phoenix on Lee has graciously invited families to carve pumpkins in their coffee shop. Why carve pumpkins at home when you can do so amongst friends (and, parents, situated near caffeine). Pay $10 for a pumpkin donated by Bremec Garden Center (funds benefit Heights Arts) and access to all the tools you need. Then, costumed kids can score candy along Lee as part of the Kids Candy Crawl. Sweet.
Reservations absolutely necessary: 216.932.8227
