The Chalk of the Town

This signature event draws 100,000 art lovers, so there's plenty of excitement in the air – and on the ground! Come for the art, and stick around for music on the mainstage, a festival food court and bistro, shops, children's creative areas and more.

Graffiti of a Different Kind

Street painting is a centuries-old tradition, dating back to the 16th century when artists drew crowds creating masterpieces on the cobblestones. Uniqueness and creativity is what street painting is all about, whether it's a chalk replica of a classic masterpiece or a 3D widescreen tricking the viewer into seeing something that isn't there – such as a fantastical flying dragon or a cliff into a deep crater so realistic it makes you think twice before stepping.
