Chalk the Walk 2026 — ✔️

Despite the rain, IUP students came and supported the event by chalking the Oak Grove sidewalks with their own personal artwork (and the rain actually helped on some chalk artwork) 🖼️

A huge thank you to the following organizations and departments that made this event happen:
The National Art Education Association, the Graphic Design Student Association, the IUP Office of Marketing and Communications, the IUP Student Cooperative, the Lively Arts, and the College of Arts, Humanities, Media, and Public Affairs!

We hope to see you all next year as well for another great Chalk the Walk 🎨🖌️
