CHALK WALK

CHALK WALK - June 25, 2022

A day of fun & creativity for EVERYONE!   Local and regional artists create imaginative chalk drawings throughout downtown Oberlin. Volunteers are on hand to provide free chalk and people of all ages can add their own artwork to the sidewalk galleries. If you can’t engage your inner artist in creating chalk art, come downtown to view art in action.  Take a leisurely stroll (be sure to take photos), enjoy food from one of our local restaurants and be amazed by what people can create from a few sticks of chalk and a sidewalk square.
