Hay Bale Decoration Contest: Creativity in the Heart of Muskegon
Another favorite autumn event in Muskegon is the annual Hay Bale Decoration Contest, which is happening throughout the month of October. Hosted by the city of Muskegon, this contest invites businesses, organizations, and residents to decorate hay bales in fun and imaginative ways.
The decorated hay bales can be found throughout downtown Muskegon, and the public is encouraged to visit and vote for their favorites. It’s a perfect way to get in the fall spirit, support local creativity, and enjoy some truly unique art installations. Whether you’re a participant or just someone out for a stroll, the hay bales add a touch of seasonal charm to our city streets.
