## About

On Halloween afternoon, families can drop by Black Hill Discovery Center in costume and pose with pumpkins and props for a free instant-film photo taken by a staff member — a print to take home and shake while it develops. No registration is needed; come any time between 1 and 4 pm, but supplies are limited and handed out first come, first served, so arrive early if the photo matters to you.
