  1. Kathy and I are extremely excited to be helping expand Burien’s Night of a Pumpkin into Night of 1000 Pumpkins. Night of 1000 Pumpkins was the B/ IAS projects closing event and one of our most memorable ones. We were very happy when the city decided to continue the tradition as Night of a Pumpkin and gear it towards kids with the caveat that when Nov 1st falls on a weekend we have the opportunity to help them expand it out to Night of 1000 Pumpkins again.
    So along with The City, Discover Burien, Burien Arts, 4 Culture, Ignition N.W…. B/ IAS is proud to put the 1000 back into the Night of a Pumpkin,
    Bring your carved pumpkin for us to light and add to the park, be prepared for some good old Interim Art Space fun with , Sling Bang Bowling (Human Bowling) a Giant Simon game that features fire , the return of Pumpkin Plinko, fire performance and lots of Art. Food and carnival games along with fire side story telling for all ages plus more can be expected.
    Dane and Kathy, See you there
