The Chalk Festival is a 501c3 cultural arts nonprofit focused on the pavement arts hosting international events with numerous awards and recognitions.

Two events are taking place in 2022 the Chalk Festival in Venice and Avenue of Art in Sarasota.

The CHALK FESTIVAL will attract roughly 30K cultural enthusiasts to the Venice Airport Fairgrounds April 1 - 3, 2022. Artists from all over the world participate using chalk as their medium and the road as their canvas to create oversized masterpieces and 3D illusions.

The AVENUE OF ART is a community sidewalk painting event that already has over 150 painted sidewalks completed. Chalk Festival and local artists of all ages and skill levels will paint more sidewalks April 4-10.

Entirely run by volunteers, including our Founder/CEO Denise Kowal volunteers to make this a reality for all. We very much need your support and look forward to working with you. Thank you!
