St. Joe Today invites the community to watch as both amateur and professional artists take over Broad St., and part of the Pleasant Street Plaza, in downtown St. Joe to showcase their talents during Chalk the Block, August 2-4.
This family-friendly festival of art includes local, regional, national and international artists using the beautiful lakeside town as their backdrop. The community is invited to stroll along Broad St. (between Lake Blvd. and State St.) and the Pleasant Street Plaza (east side of Main St.) to watch as artists prepare on Friday, work all day Saturday, and finalize their pieces on Sunday.
Five artists will showcase their chalk masterpieces Wednesday, July 31 through Friday, August 2 leading up to Chalk the Block. Swing by Pleasant Street Plaza for a sneak peek of what’s to come! Don’t forget to head back that weekend to see additional artists creating their own works of art!
Event-goers can participate by voting for their favorite artists in the People’s Choice vote. To vote, purchase tickets at the People’s Choice Tent located on Broad St.
Tickets cost one dollar per vote. The artist with the most votes by the end of the weekend wins the People’s Choice Award. To catch a glimpse of this year’s artists check out stjoetoday.com/chalktheblock.
