Walking by the Cafeteria around 5:30 pm or later, you could feel a different vibe around by a mix of various teams, all steamed up surrounding the terrace lounge, waiting for their friends to join or for the next event on the agenda. This laid-back atmosphere eases the interaction of people from different spooky corners, across different verticals and floors and the age range.<\/p>\n<p>The inside of the cafeteria was as busy as the outside with people walking through the galleries, commenting, discussing, or arguing their understanding and perception of art. This Saturday, the highlight was the games based on &#8216;Halloween&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8652\" src=\"https:\/\/www.konstantinfo.com\/konstant-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Happy-Halloween.webp\" alt=\"Happy Halloween\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The festival of darkness started about 2000 years ago.
