VanDusen Glow in the Garden invites you to join them this Halloween for a walk through a new light show with unique features and magical moments. The old barred owl has played a Halloween trick by casting a “hootenanny” spell and making it glow. Take a journey through the garden and help Anna the hummingbird and her friends lift the spell by collecting Halloween treats along the way.

Visitors of all ages will enjoy tasty treats from popular local food vendors, crafts, and much more!
