On Sunday, October 12, Newtown Community Center sponsored a Pumpkin Painting event. Children and their parents rolled up their sleeves and got busy creating one-of-a-kind hand painted pumpkins.

There was plenty of glitter, some of which found itself into the hair of the “artists,” and there was plenty on some faces as well. The group was small but very festive. There were lots of giggles to go around and many “oohs” and “aahs” as the artists marveled at each other’s creativity.
