According to U.S. Consulate General Chennai Public Engagement and Cultural Affairs Officer Scott Hartmann, “While many people have a perception that Halloween is mainly about spooky and scary things, Halloween is one of the most beloved holidays among kids, families, and communities in the USA, because it’s a time when we all come together to get creative, let our imaginations run wild, and create a real fun experience for children.”.
A press release said,”There is a DIY activity to make your own trick-or- treat bags at 10.30 a.m., an Escape Room adventure at 11.00 a.m., a Halloween-themed movie at 12.00 p.m., and Storytelling at 2.30 p.m. (for children ages 3 to 9). Throughout the day you can 3D-print cool Halloween themed objects, and enjoy a treat after checking out books from The American Center’s library.”
“To enter the American Center, visitors are requested to carry an original Indian government-issued photo identity card and enter from the Cathedral Road entrance. Cell phones must be deposited at the security counter of the Consulate General,” the release added.
