Chalk-A-Lot Street features up to 10 muralists who are each given a section of 4th street to create a piece that is inspired by the theme. All muralists create their work throughout the duration of the festival, giving event attendees a glimpse into the process and a chance to see the final piece. All muralists vie for two top awards: “Best Mural” and “The People’s Choice". Attendees can stop by Chalk-A-Lot on 4th Street west of Mill to see the muralists in action and vote for their favorites!

While you're there, be sure to check out what Arizona Flower Market has in store! They’ll be hosting a floral design competition, Art in Full Bloom, where nine local florists will create stunning floral interpretations inspired by the murals from the 2024 Tempe Blooms, which were live painted this January. It's a colorful twist that complements the creativity of Chalk-A-Lot Street perfectly. Don’t forget to vote for your favorite floral creation while you're at the festival, and take a moment to chat with the Arizona Flower Market team at their booth to learn about their exciting plans for the 2025 Tempe Blooms event!
