HALLOWEEN: Varga Bar’s Pumpkin-Carving-Palooza

Check this space all week for our picks of the Philly Halloween event litter.

Varga Bar is seeking to flip the misconception that pumpkin carving is for kids with their adult-only jack-o-lantern-carving extravaganza. Expert carver Eric Wagner (want proof?) will be there to show off his etching skills but that shouldn’t deter you from debuting your own creative prowess. All participating carvers will receive a $10 gift certificate and the winner will win dinner for two at Varga. Of course, pumpkin beers will be plentiful, including Dogfish Head Pumpkin and Southern Tier Pumpking. And if this little shindig doesn't satisfy your Varga-hosted Halloween urgings, head back on Oct. 28 and 29 for an '80s movie costume party and a men-and-women-in-uniform costume ball, respectively.

Mon, Oct 24, 8 p.m., free, Varga Bar, 941 Spruce St., 215-627-5200, vargabar.com.
