Denver Chalk Art Festival

CherryArts presents the 24th Annual Denver Chalk Art Festival, Colorado’s premier street painting event. 

For one weekend, more than 200 professional, amateur, and student artists transform the streets of Denver’s Golden Triangle Creative District into a vibrant open-air gallery of chalk art inspired by the centuries-old Italian tradition of street painting. This free, family-friendly festival celebrates creativity while supporting CherryArts’ mission to expand access to arts education across Colorado. Visitors can watch artworks come to life in real time, meet artists, enjoy live music, food trucks, and interactive art experiences, and vote for their favorites in the popular People’s Choice Award.
