A Look Back at Chalk Howard Street 2019

In July 2019, the inaugural Chalk Howard Street in Rogers Park became Chicago’s first and only major chalk art festival!

The event featured world-renowned 3D and 2D chalk artists, food by local purveyors, opportunities for amateur artists and family-friendly music and entertainment.

We plan to host this street art festival again in the summer of 2021.
