About
Get ready for Monster Bash, a two-night Halloween celebration at the Creative Discovery Museum! Kids can wear their favorite costumes and enjoy a spooky (but not scary) time filled with crafts, character meet-and-greets, a ghost scavenger hunt, and a pumpkin toss. Meet fascinating critters from the Tennessee Aquarium, design a take-home craft, and play Halloween Bingo. The fun extends to the plaza with a bounce house, bonfire with apple cider, and Monster Putt Putt.
