Chalk the Walk : Zest Events International
See the streets of Newcastle turn into concrete canvases with a collection of mind-bending 3D artworks.
Come and see the footpaths of Newcastle transformed into concrete canvases with a collection of mind-bending artworks during Chalk the Walk.
The theme for this year's event is All Creatures Great and Small and visitors are encouraged to explore the art trail taking in the different 3D artworks from our talented artists, while having a bit of fun and becoming part of the art.
This year we are also inviting local artists to come out of their studios and create their own chalk artworks live on the streets of Newcastle.
Explore the fun with your family, friends and pets! Step into the art, become part of the illusion and share your magic moments!
Chalk the Walk is fun for all ages and is an all-accessibility event. To view the map or more info visit chalkthewalk.com
