Chalk Up Helena

The Helena Public Art Committee will host its Annual Chalk Up Helena! on Saturday, July 15, from 9 am – 3 pm. This event gives artists of all ages the chance to display their talent on the Walking Mall Trolley Block in downtown Helena. Sidewalk chalk art provides a wonderful temporary medium for artistic expression. Chalk Up Helena! will feature the creations of dozens of artists! The event includes five categories of artists: 10 years and younger; ages 11-14; ages 15-18; ages 19 and older; family, adult group, or adult with child. The event awards prizes by two methods. Peoples’ Choice awards are voted by participants and spectators. Judges’ Choice awards are determined by a panel of three judges. Registration forms are available at Room 321 on the third floor of the City-County Building or online. Artists may also register on the day of the event. HPAC is an appointed advisory committee to the Helena City Commission that promotes public art in the Helena community and informs residents and visitors about the many works of art available to the public for their enjoyment.
