Pumpkin Carving Contest at The Independent
Union Square hotspot hosts night of extreme pumpkin art in the pub

On October 28, The Independent will challenge Halloween faithful to create the ultimate pumpkin art. Hosted in anticipation of all Hallows’ Eve, The Indo’s Pumpkin Carving Contest will pit teams against each other to determine whose decorating skills reign supreme. The Indo will supply teams with one pumpkin per table and the basic tools to jazz up their custom creation. Whether you opt for a traditional jack-o’-lantern theme or design an intricate spooky scene, your pumpkin will be scrutinized by The Indo staff and the winning team will receive a $40 gift certificate. After, all of the carved gourds will be put on display in the pub throughout Halloween weekend creating an illuminated pumpkin patch right in Union Square.
Wednesday, October 28, from 7:00pm – 10:00pm. Admission and entrants are complimentary. Pumpkins are supplied by The Indo on a first come, first serve basis; limit of one pumpkin per table. This event is for ages 21+.
