For the second year, the Downtown Silver Spring Chalk Fest is returning to Ellsworth Drive on Saturday May 4th, from 10am until 4pm.
“Enjoy strolling, scooting or wheeling down the road as it is transformed into a chalk art gallery for the public to enjoy! Dozens of amateur, emerging and professional artists will create mini-masterpieces throughout the day. This event is free to attend and perfect for all ages! The newly painted Ellsworth Drive mural will be on display with a fresh design to enjoy.”
This year, Chalk Riot and Arts on the Block are teaming up with Peterson Companies to fill Ellsworth Drive with creativity, color and fun. Ellsworth Drive is a pedestrian plaza located between Fenton St and Georgia Avenue. Come be a part of the action, and don’t forget to explore all the retail and dining options Downtown Silver Spring has to offer.
Get ready to see the pavement come alive with vibrant colors and amazing artwork, you’ll be amazed by the talent on display. Everyone can contribute to our community chalk zone! Looking to create your own masterpiece? Register HERE for your own pavement gallery space (availability is limited and fills quickly).
Please note that general registration for this event does NOT secure you a chalk artist gallery space, and you must register separately using THIS FORM.
