SUMMARY:Chalk it at Makin' it Local
DESCRIPTION:Makin’ it Local is throwing it back to the glory days of sidewalk masterpieces and dusty hands with their Third Annual “Chalk It” Event on May 23\, 2026—and you’re invited to unleash your inner sidewalk\, Picasso. \nGrab a chunk of chalk (they’ve got you covered… literally\, thanks to their patio) and go wild on their covered and open-air space.

(Worldwide recognition not guaranteed\, but heavy bragging rights absolutely are.) \nNo experience required. Stick figures welcome. Overachievers encouraged. \nChalk provided by Makin’ it Local\, or bring your own secret weapon if you’re feeling competitive.
