The Chalk Walk

Normally on the first Saturday in May, there is a great event in downtown Jasper around the square called The Chalk Walk.  It was postponed until this weekend, and we had a blast.

The Chalk Walk is a fundraiser for the Jasper Community Arts Commission.  You purchase a square to use sidewalk chalk and color your own creation.  It is always fun to go and see what others create.  There are some extremely talented artists, children, and artists of all ages.  There are also different booths where they give children the options of different craft items.  In the past they have made coasters, buttons, and all sorts of fun things.  This year they had a thumb print art station, an accordion butterfly (or dragonfly) station, a face painting station, and, like every year, a community canvas station.  This year's community canvas gave everyone a chance to draw a house and add it to the canvas.

We have such a great time every year.  Here are a few photos from the day.









It was such a great day with my little buddies!  :)
