PREIT, the owner of the Willow Grove Mall, is hosting a fun-filled back-to-school event with food, live music, and activities for all ages on September 9, writes Max Bennett for Patch.

Guests will be able to see Chase, Skye, and Marshall from “PAW Patrol,” enjoy music by DJ Greg Curran and make pencil cases at a craft station.

Kids can also get temporary tattoos and take photos at the balloon shimmer wall photo backdrop.

PREIT is asking guests to also stop by the Jenkintown Food Cupboard to donate food or money. Anyone who donates can enter for a chance to win a backpack filled with school supplies.

“We’re looking forward to welcoming back the school year as the summer season starts to wind down, and what better way to celebrate than with the collaboration of local partners,” Lisa Pellicciotta, vice president of marketing at PREIT, said.

“This year, we’re proud to support nutrition for all children with our Fuel For School campaign.”

The back-to-school activities will take place from 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. in Macy’s Court.
