Chalk Block at ArtFest Fort Myers

Where high school students and professional artists create stunning chalk art

Enjoy watching 30+ teams from Lee County High Schools and professional chalk street painting artists create beautiful drawings — not on canvas but on the pavement.

For most students this is their first time painting with chalk on the ground. You'll be amazed at their talent.

The 2024 theme for student and professional artists is The Joy is in the Journey. The possibilities are endless!

Registration for Chalk Block 2024 is now open. All entries are coordinated by high school art teachers or adult counselor.

Deadline: December 8, 2023

HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR APPLICATION:

The easiest way to submit your application is via the online link below. Make sure you click on the correct link for the student registration or the teacher registration. Teachers need to submit a separate form for each team.

You may also submit forms by mail/hand deliver to:

1375 Jackson Street, Suite 401 Fort Myers, FL 33901.

Your ENTIRE TEAM needs to submit your forms in the same way (either online OR mail/hand-deliver). We will not accept teams who submit a mix of online and mail/hand-delivered forms.

Your team is not confirmed until 3 student forms and 1 teacher form have been submitted for each team. All forms need to be submitted by the due date to be accepted.

Confirmation of team status will be sent via email to each student and their teacher by December 15, 2023.
