Cullyfest Sidewalk Chalk Design Inspiration

  • Grace Presbyterian Church Parking lot 6025 Northeast Prescott Street Portland, OR, 97218 United States (map)

Welcoming Cully neighborhood children, young adults and families! All ages and visitors from other neighborhoods welcome too. The City Repair T-Horse will also be making an appearance!

Free lunch + ice cream provided

In preparation for CullyFest! we welcome youth from the neighborhood to draw side-by-side with several Cully-based muralists. The ideas, images, and concepts generated will inspire the design for the sidewalk painting to be completed later in the summer at CullyFest! on Sept 21. No experience is necessary!

Reflecting on the Theme

The theme of CullyFest! event is about the importance and confluence of culture and water, as we bring together the community in celebration of the music, arts, and culture of the Cully neighborhood.

con-flu-ence

- a coming or flowing together, meeting, or gathering at one point

We Aspire...
