Carving with the Masters Class

Join a master pumpkin carver for an all-inclusive carving experience. Learn directly from the artist as they walk you step by step of carving your very own intricate jack-o’-lantern! They will provide tools they use to create some of the stunning artwork that has enchanted millions of visitors at the Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular. This year’s design will feature one of our resident animals! Can’t draw? Don’t worry, the pumpkin comes prepared with the carving design pre-drawn for you! Then end the class exploring the Zoo’s enchanting Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular trail.

Program registration includes admission to the class, your pumpkin (with artwork pre-applied), carving tool kits customized by the master carvers, and an LED Lamp/Bulb to illuminate your “gourd-eous” artwork. Also includes light refreshments and front-of-line VIP access to the Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular!
