Happy Halloween!

In honor of the upcoming holiday weekend, check out the Farber Gravestone Collection in LUNA Commons:

The Farber Gravestone Collection is an unusual resource documenting the sculpture on over 9,000 gravestones most of which were made prior to 1800… These early stones are both a significant form of artistic creation and precious records of biographical information, now subject to vandalism and to deterioration from the environment.

Or get costume-inspired by browsing images in ARTstor. Marilyn Monroe? Spooky bride? Witch teacher? Zombie/punk on the CTA? Cat/sad pumpkin? The possibilities are endless!

(Please note: links will not work unless you are on the University of Chicago campus or have logged into LUNA/ARTstor remotely).
