Our parking lot will turn into a giant canvas for our 2025 Chalkfest! This family-friendly event brings us all together for a day of artistic fun. Plan to bring the family, to chalk or to watch the chalkers in action, enjoy live music, and create in the kid’s drawing zone! Food and drink will be available for purchase.

Prizes awarded in multiple categories. Entry fee is $20 per block (individuals or teams of up to four people.)

2025 Galena Chalkfest guest artist Vanessa DeWulf is an elementary school art teacher at Our Lady of Guadalupe and St. Columbkille schools in Dubuque. She graduated from Clarke University with a degree in elementary education and a minor in art.
