Take part in a Halloween Harvest Festival inspired by Fet Gede, the Haitian Festival of the Ancestors, at Socrates Sculpture Park. The Park is located just blocks away from the NYC Ferry’s Astoria landing in Hallets Cove and is one of many Halloween activities accessible by ferry this year. This festival will feature a special Fet Gede dance and drum circle performance and song workshop with Menesky “Sky” Magloire. Haitian food will be provided by Kombit Restaurant, and desserts from Val’s Cookie Canvas. There will also be traditional Halloween festivities like a doggie costume contest, face painting, card reading and costume making.
This event, which will run from 12p.m. to 4p.m. on October 27th, is free and no RSVP is required.
