More memories from last Thursday's Haunted Halls event! ⁠
⁠
Have a fun and safe Halloween, y'all!⁠
⁠
#cspace #cspaceprojects #cspacemardaloop #halloween #throwbackthursday #tbt
Happy Halloween from cSPACE!⁠
⁠
Our Haunted Halls showcase event was a super hit - thanks to all the members of our creative community, staff, and volunteers who went out of their way to make sure our visitors had a creepy good time! ⁠
⁠
If you've met Bia, on our event staff team, you'll know she is the sweetest person you've ever met - and an incredibly talented videographer! Most of our highest performing reels are created by her. But here she turned the camera the other way around...⁠
⁠
Have a wonderful and safe day whether you're 5 or 105! ⁠
