The Art Association of Jackson Hole is excited to host the 2025 Pumpkins on Fire Fall Festival on Saturday, October 4 from 10am - 4pm, at the Art Association Glenwood Parking Area.
This beloved family-friendly event brings the magic of autumn to life with outdoor art activities for all ages, including live raku glazing and firing of ceramic pumpkins, block printing of trick-or-treat bags, hands-on pumpkin crafts, festive food and drink, and more.
See the raku-firing process happen from start to finish right before your eyes. Start by selecting a ceramic pumpkin hand crafted by Art Association studio users, glaze your pumpkin and then set it to the flames to watch it transform!
All proceeds support our year-round arts education, open studio access, community outreach, and exhibitions. Thank you for helping us create a dynamic, inclusive, and art-centered community.
