We’ve brewed up something for everyone:

- Prize drawings – Stop in for your chance to win fun surprises throughout the evening.
- Costume Contest – Open to both kids and adults! Show off your spookiest, funniest, or most creative look. Handmade costumes will be given extra consideration.
- Children’s Contest: ages 17 and under
- Adult Contest: ages 18+
- Contest check-in ends at 7:00 pm
- Prizes awarded at 7:30 pm
- Please keep costumes family-appropriate and safe (no real or realistic weapons).
Ghouls Night Out is a new and exciting community event in downtown Lake City, and we’re proud to be part of it. Our doors will be open, our volunteers and artists will be on hand, and we’ll be sharing a mix of creativity, candy, and community spirit. So, while you’re out roaming the streets, swing by the Gallery for a spell—you just might leave with a painted rock, a prize, or a costume contest ribbon!
