Utah Chalk Art Festival 2026

Experience the magic of chalk art as The Gateway comes alive with color! The inaugural Utah Chalk Art Festival brings together 20 talented local artists creating large-scale artwork right before your eyes. Come meet the artists, watch each piece take shape throughout the day, and see what’s possible with a little chalk and a lot of imagination. For many of these artists, The Gateway is where their love of chalk art first began years ago, making this festival a special return to where it all started. Let's celebrate the creativity and community of Utah’s chalk art in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City! Whether you love art or are simply looking for a unique Labor Day weekend outing, you won’t want to miss it!
