MAKE! Chicago - Open Shop Night - Punkin' Destructin'
TOP RATED
10 Have Dabbled
Arts & DIY
Hey All!
Open Shop Night at MAKE! Chicago returns in October for a night of SPOOKY CRAFTING!
(I mean what else could it be?)
We're going to get a stack of pumpkins for carving and painting, and come up with some fun Halloween craft activities. And, as we're a workshop, and we're silly, we're gonna up the ante a bit and add some power tools to the pumpkin carving tool arsenal this year.
Throughout the evening, we will have local artists presenting "haunting" performances. And, I am fairly certain something is going to be (safely) set on fire. I am fairly certain of this, because I will likely be setting it on fire.
Snacks and drinks will be on hand. And yes, even though it's stupid, I'm going to get a few pumpkin beers...

The idea of the place is great, but in terms of the activities they offered, the level was for children not adults. BIG disappointment!
