A day-long street painting festival that turns downtown Knoxville sidewalks into a vast canvas for the region’s most talented professional and student artists.
The Chalk Walk comes back in its eighth year and remains one of the fan favorites among our visitors in April! The street painting festival, whose origination as a featured event of Dogwood Arts, drew inspiration from a 16th century Italian happening, turns Knoxville’s downtown sidewalks into a seemingly infinite canvas for the region’s most talented professional and student artists. Dogwood Arts brings this event to Knoxville once again to continue to educate visitors and artists, alike, of this lost art in hopes of keeping it alive for future generations. Bring the family and get some ideas for your child’s next driveway masterpiece – or your own!
Chalk Walk will be on Saturday, April 9, 2016 at Krutch Park and Market Square. Artists begin working at 8:30 am and conclude by 4:30 pm. We will also host a fun and informative workshop in March at the Knoxville Museum of Art. If we have bad weather, the walk will be moved to Sunday, April 10.
Chalk Walk, presented by avantisavoia.com returns to Downtown Knoxville for its 8th year!
