Chalk your way to a blue ribbon

Posted on 7:08 AM by Unknown

We love sidewalk chalk!

Who doesn’t remember spending endless summer hours chalking away on the driveway?

Well, you may not have the time to spend endless hours chalking away, but I’m willing to bet you could spare a few hours this summer to relive your childhood and make new memories chalking it up in the Ohio State Fairs 2012 Street Art competition.

On Aug. 4, participants in this new competition will use chalk and either a 4x4 or 8x8 area of asphalt on the grounds to paint a scene at the Fair.

First, second and third place winners will be awarded. First place will win $200 for their creative chalking skills.

Click here for more details or email p.oloughlin@expo.state.oh.us with any online entry questions.

You have until July 15 to enter, so sign up and start chalking!

But wait - there's more! 

A list of other fair competition deadlines can be found below. Information about all of these competitions is available at OhioStateFair.com.
