Fun for Kids Young & Old
Imagine artists, young and old, professional and amateur displaying their talents by drawing directly in front of a visiting audience rather than in the solitude of their studios. Artists start with empty squares of asphalt and by the end of the weekend, these squares will be transformed into magnificent pieces of artwork.
- Street painters
