UPCOMING EVENTS: Pasadena Chalk Festival


I apologize to the Pasadena Chalk Festival for stealing the above image and the following information from their website. 


SATURDAY, JUNE 18 AND SUNDAY, JUNE 19, 2011 -10:00am. – 7:00pm.

Designated the World’s Largest Display of Chalk Art in 2010 by Guinness World Records, The Pasadena Chalk Festival will draw over 600 artists from across Southern California and beyond, who will use 25,000 sticks of pastel chalk to create spectacular murals on concrete throughout the beautiful courtyards of Paseo Colorado. Amazing works of art from every style imaginable, classical to contemporary, whimsical and fantastic to socially relevant, will be created and shown at the festival over the course of Father’s Day weekend. 


This one-of-a-kind public art event, now in its 19th year, is free-of-charge at Paseo Colorado. The most outstanding murals in several categories, as selected by the participating artists of the 2011 Pasadena Chalk Festival will win jetBlue round trip tickets, along with other special awards from our sponsors. Visitors will be able to vote for their favorite mural, “The People’s Choice Award” in participating Paseo Colorado retail stores.

All winning murals will be announced at 5:00pm Sunday evening.

Some work from previous years:
