Listeners in Phoenix, the weekend is here, and you're in luck—the city is bursting with ways to celebrate October’s energy, spooky vibes, and artsy adventures. Tonight, step into fall with something truly unique: The Phoenix Ghost Hunt. Hosted downtown at 201 West Washington Street, this outdoor exploration game sets your team loose to uncover the haunted secrets tucked into Phoenix’s historic core. According to Eventbrite, the ghost hunt kicks off at sunset, transforming ordinary streets into a playground of legends and goosebumps.

For art lovers, tonight is also the opening reception of the Arizona Expressions art exhibition put together by ASU’s Hispanic Research Center and Gateway Community College. Beginning at 5 p.m., listeners can explore a rich collection of prints from Arizona’s Latino, Latina, and Latinx artists, all at the GateWay Community College Art Gallery. The event is free, features light refreshments, and every guest walks away with a complimentary art book—typically nearly $45. The exhibit runs through December, but tonight you can join the buzz of the opening night, including special remarks from the artists and organizers.

Families and crafters, don’t miss the free Watercolor Stained Glass Craft Night at the S’edav Va’aki Museum from 6 to 7 p.m. tonight.
