Egg Hunt, Petting Zoo Easter Event Set For Saturday At Halcyon

CUMMING, GA — Halcyon invites the community to Hoppin’ into Halcyon, a family-friendly Easter celebration. From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the mixed-use destination will be activated with animals, artful entertainment, bunny-themed surprises and plenty of treats for kids, furry friends and parents to enjoy.

To kick off the event, children are invited to bring their own baskets or pick up a free tote bag to collect treat-filled eggs and goodies from participating Halcyon restaurants and retailers. Halcyon will offer a variety of spring-themed entertainment, including pet-and-groom animals from the North Georgia Zoo, photos with the Easter Bunny at Cherry Street, bunny and chick crafts at Board & Brush, a bath fizzy workshop with Buff City Soap, face painting, balloon animals and other artful encounters. Unexpected Pooch will have dog treats and photo opportunities available for furry friends.

Children’s tickets for the event are $15 and all proceeds benefit Jesse’s House, a local nonprofit organization that provides emergency shelter for adolescent girls who have experienced neglect or abuse. Adults will not need a ticket and the event will be held rain or shine. For full event details and to purchase tickets, visit the Facebook event page.
