Chalk Art Workshop: 2D Street Painting

Chalk Art Workshop: 2D Street Painting
with Artist Katie Bush
Saturday, March 14, 2026
10am to 2pm
$100 per person, all supplies included

Learn the basics of street painting from award-winning professional chalk artist Katie Bush! This hands-on workshop covers everything you need to get started- supplies, techniques, application methods, basic color theory, and best practices for 2D chalk art. By the end, you’ll have the foundation to keep developing your skills on your own- and maybe even sign up for a chalk festival! No experience required; all levels are welcome. Ages 12 to adult.

Please note that this is an ephemeral art form and we'll be focusing on technique; You'll learn new skills but will not necessarily have a physical artwork to take home with you... But we'll absolutely photograph you with your finished chalk art piece!

There is a lot of hunching over/squatting involved in this workshop. If you are unable to do this, please email [email protected] and we will find a reasonable accommodation so that you will be able to participate.

We will get messy! Bring clothes you don't mind getting dirty, as well as sunscreen and a hat. A gardening cushion is recommended if you have sensitive knees or hips.
