Posted on by Vickie & Peter

What a week!  OK, no World Series game tomorrow, so get on down to Alchemy and help judge the 2nd installment of their chef throwdown series as champion Chef Scott Jensen takes on Chef Stacy Cogswell of award-winning Brookline restaurant, Regal Beagle, in a head-to-head challenge with the season’s #1 staple: the pumpkin.  Plus you’ll be helping to support The Open Door at the same time.  — Call 978-281-3997 for reservations

Professional and amateur ARTISTS compete to see who can make a pumpkin LOOK BEST.  Alchemy will donate $5 to the Open Door for every pumpkin entered.

Contestants do not need to be present at the event itself to win, they simply need to bring their carved pumpkin to Alchemy anytime between now and 7:00 pm on October 29th. The best looking pumpkin will earn its maker a $100 gift certificate with second place receiving $50.

Here are some ideas – but maybe someone should do a GMG pumpkin?
  

If you want to attend the Chef Pumpkin Challenge at Alchemy on Tuesday, October 29th  call 978-281-3997.  Alchemy’s Chef Scott Jensen will challenge Chef Stacy Cogswell of Regal Beagle to a throw down with the season’s #1 staple: the pumpkin.

At the challenge, every guest will receive a signature challenge cocktail made with Gloucester’s own Ryan & Wood spirits, a pumpkin dish from each chef, and the opportunity to cast their vote for the winner of both contests.

Art Haven’s Third Annual Pumpkin Carving Contest and Costume Party

Halloween is fast approaching, and that means it’s Jack-O-Lantern time.  On Saturday, October 23, Art Haven will be hosting its third annual pumpkin carving contest at its 180B Main Street location. 
Carving will begin at 3:00pm and judging will begin around 6:00pm.  Similar to last year, there will be two competitions: an adult contest and a children’s contest.  Adults will receive cash prizes for 1st through 3rd place, in the amounts of $100, $75, and $25.  The kids contest will be judged for scariest, most creative, and funniest.  Runners-up in each category will receive an Art Haven gift card.
In addition to the carving contests this year, though, there will also be a prize awarded to the best adult and child costume. Come dressed as your favorite superhero, local celebrity, or anything else creative you can think of!
“We’ve had a lot of fun carving pumpkins the last two years,” says Art Haven Director Dawn Gadow. “We can’t wait to add costumes to this year’s party.”
Pumpkins will be supplied at the event, with suggested donations of $5 for small pumpkins and $10 for large pumpkins. Art Haven, with support from Wolf Hill Home and Garden Center and Rockport National Bank, hopes to involve the entire community for a night of fun in celebration of the fall season.
