The FRA will provide sidewalk chalk.
You are encouraged to bring chalk pastels, sponges, spray bottles, etc. Youtube has some great tutorials to make your art special!
A recommendation would be to begin early before it gets too hot! Or bring a pop up tent for yourself to provide shade- the tent cannot impede use of the sidewalk or access to storefronts.
Artists will be randomly assigned a section of sidewalk in Freeport. Artwork will begin no sooner than 6AM on July 28th and end no later than 3PM on July 29th. Winners will be announced before the FRA Free concert that evening in the Hope Garden.
If there is a rain cancellation, refund will be given minus Eventbrite fees (about $2 per ticket).
