Chalk the Walk ARTsplosion

The Chalk the Walk Artsplosion is an annual festival sponsored by Beach Street USA. Students of all ages will enjoy drawing on the boardwalk with chalk and making a creative masterpiece. There are several divisions in the competition. Students who are 12 to 16 years of age can participate in the event as part of the youth division. You must incorporate the announced theme in your work. There is a panel of judges who will score your work based on creativity, the use of color, and how the theme was incorporated in your drawing. Trophies and cash prizes are given at the end of the event. If your student group has children who are under 12 years of age, they can participate in the competition in a separate area of the boardwalk. The students are encouraged to supply their own chalk for the event. The Chalk the Walk Artsplosion festival takes place at the same time as the 17th Street Art Festival. The event is held at the 17th Street Park. You will find various types of media on display including jewelry and sculptures. The festival displays beautiful artwork from various local artists. Your student group will also have the opportunity to enjoy some live entertainment and delicious food as part of the experience. The Chalk the Walk Artsplosion is a great way for the student group to display their creative art and use their imagination to incorporate the theme with a special touch. Both festivals are fun and educational for students of all ages.
