Families, artists and onlookers will be picking up pieces of chalk to express their creativity at the first "Chalk the Walk" Festival on Saturday June 16, 2012 (Father's Day weekend) from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Oklahoma City's first chalk art event will offer fun activities and amateur art competitions, all in support of Parents Assistance Center, a local non-profit that has been working to strengthen families since 1976.
For only $15 (before May 16, and $20 after!), you can register as an artist and try your hand at creating a sidewalk masterpiece in chalk. Register up to 4 artists per sidewalk square.
For only $5 a family can participate in all the fun activities--live music, hands-on kids fun, and of course, watching the artists create sidewalk masterpieces! Fantastic food from local restaurants is also available!
