2023 HOWLER AT BAULER EVENT GUIDE

Date

Lincoln Central’s signature Halloween party is back and will be better than ever! Known as “The Haunt of the Neighborhood,” Howler at Bauler is held each year during Halloween weekend in Bauler Park. Howler at Bauler includes a costume parade, face painting, a balloon artist, games, candy, a DJ to dance to and more for local neighborhood children and families.

We hope you can join us for this famous local event on Saturday, October 28 from 3 – 5 p.m. at Bauler Park. 

Here’s What’s Planned for our 2023 Event:

Face painting, balloons and music!

Due to the incredible demand over the last two years, we will be providing two balloon artists and two face painters at the event this year! Smarty Pants will be providing balloon artists and we will have two airbrush artists from Awesome Balloon Creations doing face and hand painting. We will also have a DJ from Bizar Entertainment.

Teal Pumpkin Table

This year at our Howler at Bauler event, we are excited bring back our Teal Pumpkin table, supported by Park West Cooperative Nursery School.

WHAT IS A TEAL PUMPKIN? The Teal Pumpkin Project is a simple way to make trick-or-treating safer and more inclusive for children living with food allergies, and many others impacted by intolerances and other conditions. We will be placing a teal pumpkin on a special table at Howler at Bauler to signal that we will be providing allergy-free snacks and candy, as well as non-food treats that are safe for all trick or treaters.
