Evansville Wartime Museum transforms into a Halloween hangar for “We Can Boo It,” a two-week celebration running Thursday, October 16 through Friday, October 31. Festivities include museum-wide decorations, a kid-friendly skeleton scavenger hunt, playful Halloween graveyards, and costumed WWII-era skeletons staged among the exhibits. Treats for children will be available throughout the event, creating an easy add-on to fall break plans or a seasonal stop before or after other Franklin Street activities.
