Pixie Smash Forge is making June feel like October with their 'Summerween' event on Saturday .
Starting at 3 p.m. on June 10, artist Rita Thurman will be sharing her love for Halloween with an open house showcasing her art, blacksmithing, and free fun, inspired by the Disney show 'Gravity Falls.'
Pixie Smash Forge is located at 435 N Northwest St in Winamac.
The event will include a costume contest, trick-or-treating, free face painting, melon carving, knife-making a food truck and more.
Thurman says Halloween is in the blood when it comes to her style, decor, art, and even personality. Rita's grandmother ran Bonnie's Punkins' for more than 30 years on State Road 35, North of Winamac.
Having her own kind of love for all peculiar and curious, Thurman shares her eccentric, Winamac forging shop with her step-dad, artist and former auctioneer, Bob Smith. The forge's Halloween decor stays up year-round, and so does Thurman's passion.
