Harbor Harvest ‘24: Children’s Fall Festival in Photos
Waterfront Partnership’s annual Harbor Harvest festival returned for its 17th year this past Sunday! Hundreds of children and families joined us on the waterfront at Rash Field to celebrate the last weekend of October with a festive display of all things autumn- from pumpkins to poltergeists. Keep reading to see some of our favorite moments from the event!
Visitors explored our waterfront pumpkin patch on the prowl to find the greatest gourd! After picking there pumpkins, kids and parents alike got to enjoy decorating them at our pumpkin painting station.
One of our most popular event attractions, the petting zoo, did not disappoint this year with an adorable array of bunnies, chickens, cows, donkeys, goats, and alpacas! Visitors of all ages had a great time spending time with these animals.
Putting a little more flair on the fair, our carnival ride, mechanical bull, and trackless train offered a chance to take a ride.
Give all the awards to everyone who participated in our costume contest- these costumes were seriously spooky, creative, and cool! Face painting was another way to get in the Halloween spirit, with both cute and creepy designs available.
Kids got to check out views of the Inner Harbor skyline from up high on our pony rides!
We had excellent entertainment from electric violinist L Stringz and science entertainer Rocket Reba.
Kids got crafty with hands-on art projects including painting, fish printing, leaf decoration, and bracelet making. And at our Healthy Harbor table, they learned about oysters, crabs, and other wildlife in the harbor- and of course Mr. Trash Wheel!
Thank you to our community partners and to all the food trucks who came out to help make this a great day!
Thanks again to everyone who came to join us!
