Guests will enjoy a night of fun at Peabody Heights Brewery with incredible trash wheel fan art, all-you-care to-drink beer, and googly-eyed crafts and games. Jam out to ghostly beats and classic hits spun by DJ Eddible, shop Trash Wheel merch from Baltimore in a Box, and enjoy snacks from local food trucks.
