2026 Wheelchair Costume Workshop
Volunteer teams work side by side to design, construct, paint, and decorate one-of-a-kind Halloween costumes inspired by each child's imagination. Built primarily from cardboard and lightweight materials, the creations fit safely over and around wheelchairs so children can move comfortably. The event wraps up with an inclusive trunk-or-treat where participating kids show off their completed costumes and collect treats from decorated vehicles.
