Join us for a spooky and creative night at our Halloween Paint & Sip: Thrifted Ghost Paintings on Saturday, October 24th at 7pm! 👻 We’ll be painting Halloween scenes—think ghosts, bats, and graveyards (maybe even a black cat! 🐈‍⬛)—on thrifted artwork for a one-of-a-kind, up-cycled masterpiece. Enjoy tasty drinks and snacks while you paint, sip, and get into the spooky spirit. Costumes encouraged, creativity required!

Tickets are $25 per person, and includes all painting supplies, drinks, and snacks.

**Attendees must bring in their own thrifted painting!**

❌ Banned Books Week is October 4-10! 📚

Books open doors, spark conversations, challenge perspectives, and help us see the world through someone else’s eyes. This week, we’re celebrating the freedom to read and the countless stories that have made an impact…even when someone has tried to silence them.

Stop by MonkeyKat Books to discover, discuss, and celebrate books that have been challenged or banned!
