- Do you like being creative, using your imagination and, basically, just messing around with others? We are challenging everyone to create their own artwork from chalk, based on the work of artist Keith Haring.
Just like Keith Haring, on Saturday 16 July we will be trying our hand at chalk drawings. His drawings will be our inspiration, only we will be using the town square as our canvas. We’ll bring the chalk, the music and some refreshments. All you have to do is come along and take part. Anyone can join in: just bring your imagination with you and try out things you’ve perhaps never done before. Together we’ll set the town alight!
competition
You can either just come along and draw your own thing, or take part in a proper competition with prizes for the best drawings. The competition is open to all children up to the age of 12. Want to take part in the the chalk-drawing competition? If so, send an email to eddy.thonon@schunck.nl or make sure you’re there at the said location by 11:00 a.m. The starting signal will be given at 11:30 a.m. and prizes given out at 2:30 p.m.
