Chalk Up the Town April 17, 2010

OK here's the plan! We are trying to get thousands of people together on a beautiful spring day in April in Carytown to draw some great sidewalk art with sidewalk chalk.

We are going to give away 30,000 pieces of chalk to anyone who wants it to draw on the sidewalks in Carytown. So that means you...whomever you are...you can draw something on a square of the sidewalk in Carytown.

We will also be getting some professional artists to jump in and create some masterpieces.

It's going to be a fun day as we make the sidewalks beautiful with the colors of spring.

Here's what we need from you:
Invite everyone you know. Anyone within driving distance to Richmond should get an invite. Direct them to the facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=10150102506860431&ref=mf). We want thousands of people to be part of this thing. This isn't a moneymaker for anyone...its just a great day of fun for all. Let's make it happen!

Here are a couple general Rules:
1) Only sidewalk chalk! No sidewalk paint, or spray paint, anything that doesn't come off with water.
2) No drawing on private property, only on the sidewalk.
3) No religious, political, or drawings that could be offensive. This isn’t about someone’s individual personal beliefs about a bunch of people coming together to make something great!

If it rains--we will reschedule for the same time on May 1st.

Special thanks to the Carytown Merchants Association for donating all the chalk!
