Every year, over 500 skilled chalk artists gather in Pasadena, California to paint the streets with vivid color and jaw-dropping murals. Join thousands of attendees for this 2-day immersive visual art experience, where not only do you get to see stunning murals, you are invited into the artists’ “studio” to watch them work. Enjoy food trucks, local vendors, an art gallery, a silent auction, and a live deejay, Cadillac G, at this family-friendly festival in the park. Celebrating 33 years, The Pasadena Chalk Festival raises funds for nonprofit organization Light Bringer Project, benefiting arts education programs for underprivileged youth.
