Keen Halloween Convention (Kid Friendly!)

Keen Halloween is just 12 days away! Wondering what I’m so excited about? It’s a Halloween Maker Faire where you can shop the Monster Market for artsy products, attend craft Workshops, enjoy spooky Entertainment and more! I’ve roped my husband Anthony into participating with me so come see us Saturday, September 29, 2012 at The New School for the Arts & Academics (NSAA), 1216 E. Apache Boulevard Tempe, Arizona 85281. The whole event is from 11 a.m. – 10 p.m. but here’s our schedule:

11:30 a.m. – 12:15 p.m. – my DIY Poison Apple Crate Craft Workshop! Read a short story by yours truly and check out all the details here: http://www.keenhalloween.com/workshop-poison-apple-crate/

5:30 p.m. – 6:15 p.m.- Iron Skull Competition, in which Anthony and I would love to have your support as our team tries to assemble the best costume out of random materials.

7:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. – Anthony and I will be working at the Evil Genius Costume Bar where we’ll offer costume ideas, advice and inspiration along with other experts.

Everything is included with the price of admission, which is a steal: adults are $7 online and $10 at the door, kids under 12 are free!
