Winners of the 2022 SFMOMA Annual Pumpkin Contest

At SFMOMA, we like to get in the Halloween spirit by hosting an annual pumpkin decorating contest among our staff. Ask anyone, and they’ll tell you the competition can get pretty ripe, thanks in large part to the creativity and wit of our colleagues.

This year, fellow staff voted on each other’s best-in-gourd creations. Take a look at the best picks of the patch below and Happy Halloween from SFMOMA!
