👻🎃 Do you have extra Halloween decorations hiding in your attic or garage? ScienceWorks is on the hunt for gently used décor to help transform the museum into a spooky-fun wonderland for this year’s Monster Ball!


We’re looking for all kinds of festive frights: pumpkins, cobwebs, skeletons, spooky lights, and more. Your donations will help set the scene for our community’s favorite Halloween party, where families and friends come together to celebrate with costumes, dancing, and hands-on fun.


Donating is easy — just bring your decorations to the front desk during regular museum hours (Wednesday through Sunday, 10 AM to 5 PM).


Save the date: Monster Ball is happening Saturday, October 25, 4 to 8 PM. Come join the fun and see your generosity in action!


🕸️ Your spooky stuff = more magic for everyone! 🦇✨
