Join us for the 8th annual UMLAUF Straw Fest! Straw Fest is a free fall festival hosted by the UMLAUF every year on the final Sunday in October. Stop by to enjoy pumpkin carving, a petting zoo, a fall fashion show, and plenty of other fall activities for the whole family. Funds raised for StrawFest support the UMLAUF’s family and youth programs, like this, and our monthly free Family Days, our Shaping Space after-school program for kids in Title 1 schools, summer camp, and internship fellowships.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
