2020 is Chalk It Up’s 30th Anniversary!

The annual festival is typically staged at Fremont Park over the three-day Labor Day weekend.

But due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s festival theme will be “Chalk It Up! Around The Town!” and come to life on sidewalks, parking lots and driveways throughout the Sacramento region Sept. 5-7.

Volunteer chalk artists will be in the following locations in Natomas:

• Julie Haun at HDR Engineering, 2379 Gateway Oaks Drive
• Amie Tokuhama, Angela Chow & Teresa Lehane with Natomas Garden and Arts Club at the South Natomas Community Center, 2921 Truxel Road
• Wendy Cypert at Cogent Solutions & Supplies, 4040 Vista Park Court
• Megan Kawada and Ahndiya Kiburi sponsored by North Natomas Jibe at the North Natomas Regional Park, 2501 New Market Drive
