Every August, there is an awesome free festival that happens at The Shops at Riverwoods. Chalk the Block for Charity Utah covers the parking lot and areas throughout the shopping area with chalk art. The artists must complete their entire art piece using chalk, and they do an amazing job. We love walking through and seeing the creative works at Chalk the Block Utah.
The Chalk the Block festival happens for three days. On the first day, artists begin creating their chalk art pieces. It is so fun to watch them work. Businesses and artists have different squares throughout the art area. There are even art pieces created by children. As you walk along, there are QR codes with more information about the chalk art. You can also vote for your favorites. This was my boys’ favorite thing to do.
Throughout the event, there is food and entertainment for everyone to enjoy. You can also enjoy the Shops at the Riverwoods. All proceeds from the festival are donated to Spectrum Academy. This free event happens every year, so make sure to mark your calendars. You will want sunscreen and hats because it is entirely outside, and it will get hot in the parking area.
