Watch here for a slideshow from the 2010 Festival, coming soon. As well, information about the 2011 Festival will be posted as it becomes available.

The second annual 1000 Islands International Sidewalk Chalk Art Festival was held May 15, 2010. It was a fun-filled family event showcasing art for all ages. Many types of art were on display, including sidewalk chalk art, paintings, drawings, and fine art. Visitors made their own art, enjoyed a good old-fashioned BBQ, and had their faces painted. There were special activities just for children.

The 2009 and 2010 Festivals were each a great success; you can watch a slideshow of photos from the 2009 event.

The 2010 Festival featured a special guest: acclaimed author and illustrator Wallace Edwards joined us. As well, the festival teamed with the Canadian Wildlife Federation to celebrate biodiversity; a press release announcing the partnership is available [PDF], as is the CWF's “Biodiversity” poster [PDF].
