News from the Sidewalk

CHALK4PEACE is the global chalk art project about peace. We celebrate our eleventh year as a worldwide event encouraging peace. CHALK4PEACE, Inc.  is a 501(c)(3) non-profit arts organization.

We've had more than 1000 events in 50 countries and have covered more than 12 miles of pavement with messages and visions of peace in sidewalk chalk...

We believe in  "Drawing the World Together..."

CHALK4PEACE participated in the Peace Day Student Observance at the United Nations in New York City in 2016 to honor the International Day of Peace. Hundreds of thousands of young artists of all ages have joined us since 2005.

Our goal: ONE MILLION artists Chalking 4 Peace at the same time...

Because we need Peace...Now more than ever...

Today begins the Heroes of Peace Week

On this day in 1869, Mahatma Gandhi was born. He led a revolution of peace and independence in India. On October 7, we will honor Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu for his tireless work to abolish Apartheid in South Africa; and also celebrate John Lennon's efforts to "give peace a chance" on October 9, his birthday.
