First City Art Center’s 20th Annual Glass & Ceramic Pumpkin Patch returns October 23rd & 24th, 2026


WEATHER UPDATE – PUMPKIN PATCH POSTPONED TO:

Friday, October 23rd and Saturday, October 24th

With an abundance of caution and concern for our community, and advice from knowledgeable sources, we have determined that we must postpone the 20th Anniversary Pumpkin Patch. While we are very disappointed, we look forward to celebrating this milestone on October 23rd and 24th. We will also host a Second Chance Pumpkin Sale on October 31st. The format for the rescheduled Patch will be the same – Preview Party event the evening of October 23rd and the Pumpkin Patch, open and free to the public, on October 24th. We look forward to sharing thousands of artisan made pumpkins with you. But first, stay safe this weekend!

Those who already have tickets to Friday night will be transferred to the new preview party date of October 23rd. All refund requests will be honored – you can request a refund through eventbrite, or by emailing molly@firstcityart.org

We will be getting in touch with all volunteers regarding rescheduling volunteer shifts
