    ChalkPalooza: Chalk and Bubble Festival is more than just a lively community event—it's a creative platform designed to support mental health and emotional well-being. By featuring activities like chalk art, bubbles, music, magic, balloon art, and even a Color Run (11 am-1 pm), we invite participants of all ages to express themselves creatively in a safe, family-supportive environment. Chalk and bubbles are provided free.

    This event aligns with your mission of promoting mental wellness through non-traditional approaches like art, music, and play therapy. Using chalk as a medium encourages participants to explore their emotions in a non-verbal, judgment-free, and safe way, helping to build confidence with experiential learning and emotional toughness. Adding fun elements like a classic Car Show and diverse entertainment ensures an engaging atmosphere, fostering a sense of community and belonging—key aspects of mental health.

    There are Vendor Spaces available at ChalkPalooza for your business or organization. Click here for more information.

    ChalkPalooza is a perfect example of how creativity, connection, and play can create spaces that heal, empower, and inspire positive change.

    All events are rain or shine.
