Chalk the Block For Charity Utah is a free, three-day street art festival where artists must complete their entire work using chalk. Every year artists spend hours chalking the streets, transforming the parking lots of the Shops at Riverwoods into a captivating, one of a kind experience. In addition to local and nationally-recognized artists, the festival features talent from all of the area’s high schools offering them a unique chance to hone their skills and display their works in front of a broad community audience. There is also food and entertainment for the whole family to enjoy. Proceeds from the festival are donated to local charities along the Wasatch Front. This year the festival is pleased to benefit Spectrum Academy.

Our Chalk the Block for Charity Utah artists are the stars of the show.  As such we do our best to make sure you have a fun, wonderful experience. 2022 Theme is THE GREAT OUTDOORS.
