Chalk It Up!
Chalk It Up! is a free weekend festival, March 29-30, held on the large open air parking lot on Port Republic Street in downtown Beaufort, SC, that celebrates the artistic process while drawing the community together. Artists from around the country will be creating, from scratch to finish, large chalk artwork on the pavement while chatting with the public, explaining what they are doing and telling their story. There will also be musical entertainment all day both Saturday and Sunday featuring local musicians, artisan demonstrations, and a kids-zone tent with hands-on art entertainment for youngsters. Plus, on Sunday March 30, area school art classes will compete in a chalk art competition. Everyone can vote for their favorite chalk art and monetary prizes will be awarded!
