CHALK4PEACE is the global chalk art project about peace, now celebrating its thirteenth year as a worldwide event.
We've had more than 500 events in 40 countries and have covered more than 60 linear miles of pavement with messages of peace in sidewalk chalk...
We are "Drawing the World Together..."and we believe everyone should "Give a piece of chalk a chance..."
Our goal: ONE MILLION artists Chalking 4 Peace at the same time...

We've had more than 1,000 events in 50+ countries and have covered more than a 20 miles of pavement with messages and visions of peace in sidewalk chalk. We believe in "Drawing the World Together...” Our goal is to Teach Peace to future generations.
CHALK4PEACE was the central interactive event during the Student Peace Day Observance at the United Nations in NYC in 2016 and the Community Healing Ceremony in Ferguson, MO in 2015.
Our relentless goal: ONE MILLION artists chalking 4 peace at the same time...
From its beginnings in 2003 in Arlington, VA, as a Sunday sidewalk chalk project for children, CHALK4PEACE has been recognized and funded by the Arlington Arts Commission, the DC Commission for the Arts and Humanities, the DC Mayor's Office, the Humanities Project of Arlington, Whole Foods Markets, the CSC Invitational Cycling Classic, the Boulder Arts Commission, the Pasadena (CA) Community Foundation, UNICEF, the Clown and Clown Festival (Monte San Giusto, IT), the Gooden School, Beach E.S., Berkeley Earth Day, and hundreds of peace-minded individuals from around the world.
CHALK4PEACE has grown through the efforts of hundreds of events organizers, teachers, parents, community outreach coordinators, libraries, arts centers and other peace minded individuals and organizations.
CHALK4PEACE is not an anti-war demonstration; rather, it is a Pro-Peace creative presentation for artists of all ages. We believe the visualizations we encourage through CHALK4PEACE will make a difference in the future of enlightened thought and philosophy for the world's youth.
