Be a part of this year’s Pumpkins Aglow! Members will have a chance to sharpen their creative skills and submit carved pumpkins to be featured in the display.

As a thank you for your participation, you will receive one free admission to Pumpkins Aglow for every pumpkin you submit, up to four pumpkins. Then, mark your calendars for the Member Holiday Party on November 19 during Conservatory Aglow!

Drop-off: Drop off your carved pumpkins to be featured in the upcoming week’s Pumpkins Aglow displays. Drop off at the Visitor Center between 10am-5pm on the following dates:

Display: Pumpkins will only be displayed for one week. There will be a designated space for all member carved pumpkins during Pumpkins Aglow.

Carving Guidelines: From silly to spooky, all family-friendly themes are welcome! You’re encouraged to have fun with it and show your creativity. The Conservatory reserves the right to refuse entries deemed inappropriate.

Pumpkins must be gutted from the bottom in order to be lit properly. Click here for instructions on how to do so.
