Chalking the Walk for a second time

May 17, 2016 11:01:36 AM

On Sunday, May 15th, the (unofficial) HUECU Chalk Artists gathered for a second year in a row to volunteer their artistic abilities for Cambridge Rotary Club’s Annual Spring Fundraiser: Chalk on the Walk at The Harvard Square MayFair.

Chalk on the Walk is the Cambridge version of an Italian Street Painting Festival and is one of the many interesting activities that make Harvard Square MayFair a destination for over 100,000 people on the first Sunday in May.

The day was blustery but sunny and chalk was flying as the artists tackled HUECU’s 7’ x 9’ square until final judging commenced at 3pm.

This year's Chalk on raised over $30,000 for scholarships, assistance to homeless children at Christmas time, clean water project, dictionary project, polio vaccinations world-wide and ending hunger and homelessness!
