Jack O' Lantern Pumpkin Walk Through

Country:

Eligibility:

We are looking for artists of varying talent levels to be part of our team carving 5,000 Jack O’Lanterns starting August 12th.  These are not just any Jack O’Lanterns.  These are meant to be works of art hand carved into faux polyurethane pumpkins. Why so many Jack O’Lanterns? We are working to create a unique half mile trail walk event exploding with thousands of Jack O’Lanterns creating an whimsical experience bringing together art, nature and fall.

We are looking for artists, set builders and an artist project manager!

Job Description:

We are looking for artistic people of varying skill levels to help us carve thousandths (primarily foam) Jack O'Lanterns. Carve full time or part time starting July 12th.  It is going to take a lot of carvers so whether you are an artist looking for contract full time work, a student looking for summer work, a hobby artist looking for part time work or looking to carve pumpkins after their normal job please reach out to us during the day or in the evening. Pay varies.  We are located in Lake Zurich, IL! Please email Cindy at cindy@allcommunityevents.com if you are interested in being one of our carvers!
