Every year we have Community Painting Days, where friends, family, neighbors and co-workers come to paint props and scenery for the Halloween house.  This year we had three painting days!  Young and old alike tackled a wide variety of very Ghostbuster-y type projects.

The Bogosian family makes quick work out of painting the Ghostbusters’ headquarters walls.

Michelle turns a donated cardboard tube in to the firehouse pole.

A dedicated crew hard at work (in 107 degree heat!)

Brian and Meredith cut out pages from books which, when invisible thread is added, will ‘float’ inside the firehouse.

Bich paints the ghost containment unit while Kristina and Emi paint New York City buildings.

Mary-Anne, Arya, Kriss, Mia, Emi and Grace paint firehouse trim.

Michelle paints the hanging Ghostbusters sign. Grace paints a gold frame for Vigo. Mia paints the handle for the ghost containment unit.

Bich paints Vinz Clortho the Keymaster of Gozer.  Or is it Zuul, the Gatekeeper?

Putting some final touches on homemade DIY proton packs.

Emi, Grace and Mia make some New York City traffic cones.

Thanks to everyone who helped! Come by on Halloween to see their great work!
