Get Ready to Paint the Town… with Chalk!
Join us for Chalk It Up!, a vibrant, free community festival that transforms the sidewalks of Canal Street into a massive outdoor gallery. This fun filled event invites creators of all stripes—from professional artists and weekend amateurs to children with big imaginations—to grab some chalk and help us paint the town. As you wander the historic district, you can watch colorful masterpieces come to life beneath your feet or claim your own square to make a lasting mark on the pavement. The day is packed with activities beyond the art, including a dedicated Kids Zone for our youngest creators to explore their “chalk-potential,” exciting prizes and awards for top artists, and a variety of local vendors offering unique handmade goods and delicious bites. Whether you are coming to compete or simply to soak in the atmosphere, Chalk It Up! celebrates the spirit of New Smyrna Beach by turning the very ground we walk on into a shared masterpiece for all ages to enjoy.
