JUMP-or-Treat

Walk & Wonder to Unveil the Magic of Halloween


Join us for a free Halloween experience for all ages on Saturday, October 25th from 5–8 pm. The JUMP Park will be transformed into a Wacky World of Wonder with larger-than-life inflatables, creative backdrops, and awe-inspiring decorations. Ghosts and goblins of all ages are encouraged to dress up in costumes to “JUMP-or-Treat” while exploring the JUMP Park and receiving treats and treasures along the way. This magical event is brought to you by a collaboration with JUMP and local non-profits coming together to create a safe, outdoor Halloween experience for all.

TUESDAYS 6-8PM

If you’re looking for inspiration, a few simple shortcuts to design, and crafting an unforgettable Halloween costume this year, then look no further than the drop-in Halloween costume classes!

Join us at JUMP, Tuesday October 14th, 21st, and 28th as our JUMP creatives guide you on how to make your own costume with easy-to-find-materials such as cardboard boxes, balloons, plastic cups, gems, fabric, feathers and more.

For those serious designers, JUMP will have a limited number of sewing machines (first-come-first-serve) and our costuming guide Ann Stokes will share basic sewing tips to get you on your way!

We’ll have an assortment of materials and supplies on hand, but feel free to bring along your own materials and supplies to make your costume really come to life.

FREE for all ages, levels, and creative abilities!
