Chalk it up
Join us for a vibrant celebration of creativity at the Cayton this summer! Each Friday from June to August, we'll be transforming our sidewalks into colorful canvases.
Let your imagination run wild Fridays from 10:30AM to 12:30PM, as we celebrate one of the earliest types of art—chalk drawings! Plus, each month we will feature a special guest artist! Get excited for a colorful summer!
