Kansas City Chalk and Walk Festival

Street Painting was created in Italy many centuries ago and brought to life by artists using pastel chalks as their medium and pavement/brick as their canvas.

You Are Invited to experience the creation of these street paintings, interact with the artists, enjoy street performers, Children's Creative Corridor and Workshops

Fun for Kids Young & Old
Imagine artists, young and old, professional and amateur displaying their talents by drawing directly in front of a visiting audience rather than in the solitude of their studios. Artists start with empty squares of asphalt and by the end of the weekend, these squares will be transformed into magnificent pieces of artwork.
