CHALK4PEACE...the first global sidewalk chalk painting event is BACK!
CHALK4PEACE is the young person's global arts project that took place last September 15-17, 2006.
Last year, thousands of young artists of all ages around the planet created sidewalk chalk paintings
that focused upon peace. Children of the world painted a path of color around it.
Children from over 100 countries participated in CHALK4PEACE!
WE'RE BACK and even Bigger!
CHALK4PEACE 2007 is scheduled for September 14 - 16, 2007...EVERYWHERE!
