Pumpkin Carving with John Zeggert at the South Jersey Artist Collective

Join the South Jersey Artist Collective for pumpkin carving. With artist and expert carver John Zeggert. Across the world, people have used carved lanterns, gourds, and glowing lights to mark seasonal change, honor loved ones, and symbolically “light the way” during darker months. Over time, pumpkins became the star because they are sturdy, large, and easy to carve, especially in North America where they grow in abundance. Today, pumpkin carving shows up in many forms, from front porch Jack o’ lanterns to festival displays, family gatherings, and cultural celebrations that focus on remembrance and community. Join us in celebrating and carving pumpkins with the guide of artist and pumpkin carver John Zeggert. https://www.johnzeggert.com/ This class is for all ages, with parent present. All skill levels welcome. Carving tools and pumpkins will be provided.
