Hamilton Town Center’s Chalk Art Festival is back for a third year, and will offer free entertainment for the whole family. This event is sponsored by the Indianapolis Zoo.
From 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. June 18, more than 50 local artists will line Hamilton Town Center with chalk art masterpieces and compete for prizes in both amateur and professional categories. Judges as well as the general public can cast their votes for their favorite, and winners will receive gift cards ranging from $75 to $500.
Attendees can vote on their favorite works of art while enjoying beverages from Sun King Brewing and Mallow Run Winery and listening to live music. The festival also will feature appearances from Indiana Pacers players and Boomer, plus vendors including Goddard School, Sky Zone, Nicey Treat and more.
The first 250 children will receive a drawstring backpack full of goodies, and all kids can enjoy an expanded Kids Zone with bounce houses, vendor booths, face painting and balloon animals, and the Mobile Recreation Truck from Noblesville Parks. Guests also can make a colorful creation of their own, but the art will not be judged unless registered beforehand.
“The Chalk Art festival was such a hit last year, we couldn’t wait to bring it back even better than before,” stated Lindsey Alltop, director of marketing and business development at Hamilton Town Center. “We are very proud to offer local families an afternoon of fun and free family time.”
Artists interested in additional registration information can contact the Hamilton Town Center office at 317-214-6958.
