Even as spooky season winds down, the Disneyland Hotel is keeping the spirits alive with live pumpkin carving demonstrations.
Pumpkin Carving Demos at Disneyland Hotel
The pumpkin carving demos are hosted on specific dates from 12:15-3:30pm in the courtyard outside Fantasyland Tower. Upcoming demos will take place on October 26, 28, and 31.
The featured artist is Doug Marsh; the sign details his extensive background:
Doug Marsh is a designer and artist with an MFA in Theater Design from the University of Oklahoma.
