It’s Halloween and within the Department of Art and Design that means fists full of pumpkin guts, paint-filled gourds flying through the air, and a hall filled with some of the spookiest jack-o’-lanterns. Students from the department took part in carving and displaying their pumpkin designs for our annual contest and participated in chuckin’ pumpkins across the courtyard.

This year’s winners of the publicly judged carving contest were:

Best in Show
Ivy Stansbury

Most Creative
Shelby Hoffman

Ugliest Pumpkin
Maggie Pierson and Haily House

Honorable Mention
Sierra Schuessler
