Local team plans community chalk art events for June and July

The City of Stow Arts Commission is gearing up for an exciting summer of community engagement with a series of sidewalk chalk events scheduled for June, July, and August. The first event is set for June 17, where residents will gather to create colorful chalk art at a local park, fostering creativity and community spirit.

During the meeting, members discussed the logistics of the events, including the need for volunteers to assist with the chalk art sessions. One member noted the importance of having multiple people involved, especially since some will be out of town during the events. The commission is encouraging participation from the community to ensure the success of these gatherings.

In addition to the chalk art, there are plans to incorporate a video segment featuring a "minute with the mayor," which will highlight the events and engage the public further. This initiative aims to promote the upcoming "Color Your City" celebration, which will showcase the artistic contributions of Stow residents.

The Arts Commission is excited about these events, which not only aim to beautify the city but also strengthen community ties. With the first event just around the corner, anticipation is building for a summer filled with creativity and collaboration in Stow.
