Trick or Treat
Virginia Museum of History & Culture

Join the Virginia Museum of History & Culture (VMHC) and more than 25 local non-profits for some pink Halloween fun at the annual Trick or Treat event.

Participating partners will set up spooky stations throughout the museum for kids to safely trick or treat for candy and other free giveaways. There will also be crafts, games, a Halloween band, bounce house, trackless train, chocolate making demos, and free museum admission, which includes access to Barbie™: A Cultural Icon, a major exhibition tracing Barbie®’s 65-year history through fashion, media, and cultural evolution.

The event runs 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm.

Trick or Treat at VMHC is presented by Mars Snacking
