    Create Columbia, a local non-profit that champions a creative and vital community, presents Halloween Happenings, a reimagined celebration that replaces the former Halloween House Tour. The Historic Columbia Market House serves as the hub, with artists sharing hands-on looks at their craft. Donna Gearhart demonstrates how she makes Halloween decorations, Julie Lehmer creates and sells themed jewelry, Katie Bupp shows linocut techniques using pink pearl erasers, Brenda Hartman paints masks, and Kim Morrow leads an interactive art station that involves attendees. Several artists also collaborate on bean art during the program. Admission to market house activities is free, and food is available for purchase while supplies last. Just outside the market house, a Halloween Car Show features select vehicles on display, some possibly dressed up for the holiday. Viewing is free, and tickets sold inside the market house let participants vote for their favorite, with the winner announced inside. The decorating contest includes twenty properties. Ticket holders receive a list of participating locations to drive by and vote on, considering only the front exterior displays. Votes are cast back at the market house, and winners are announced at the end. All ballots from both contests are combined for a Lucky Voter drawing, with one person receiving a gift certificate. Ticket packages are available for $10 and include one ballot for the car show, one ballot for the decorating contest, and the property list. A $25 family package includes three ballots for each contest plus the list. Tickets can be purchased at the market house or reserved in advance by calling the Create Columbia event line at 223-246-7271. Prepaid packages may be picked up at the market house, and payment by cash, check, credit card, or Venmo is accepted.
