All Hallows Eve at the Museum

11/7/2013

0 Comments

 
For the second year running, All Hallows’ Eve at the Sunshine Coast Museum & Archives was a resounding success! Outside the museum, Mad Scientist Matt Smith created spooky ambient soundscapes as ghost, ghouls and goblins entered the  museum for a night of fun and fright.
As people entered, Vampire Susan Rule spooked visitors from her coffin in the hallway- what a spooktacular delight!

On the main floor,  many of the younger children enjoyed a variety of craft stations while the Driftwood Theatre troupe led murder mystery tours of the upstairs exhibit. Here’s a taste of the mystery:  
THANK YOU to the community for participating in our All Hallows Eve event and supporting the work we do. It truly was a fantastic success with close to 200 visitors and generous donations at the door!

None of this would have been possible without the support from the event sponsors and donors. Thank you to our GOLD LEVEL event sponsors: SuperValu and the family of Jean Clarke (in memoriam).SILVER LEVEL event sponsors include the spooktacular Betsy Van Haldren, Elie Kozhaya, Mike Hoche, Bayview Terrace and Startek Restoration . Thank you to our BRONZE LEVEL event sponsors: Jon Carlow, Sharon Venechuk and Patra Pizza. Your generosity was greatly appreciated!

Again, without the volunteers, we wouldn't be able to do the work we do here. THANK YOU to: Amber Lidstone, Capt. Danny Dolen, Jen Stanway, Christa Banks, Melissah Charboneau, Codfathers, Celia Fisher, Bill and Nicole, Gibsons Youth Centre and Terrifying Tina Kirshenbaum, Taja Rivera, Claire Lyle, Miki Maeba, Nina Bell, Laura Piersol.
