Every year we look forward to Chalkfest Maple Grove. The artwork the chalk artists create is completely outstanding, it’s free to attend and take lots of fun selfies! It’s also the Midwest’s Largest Chalk Art Festival!

This year is the 10th Annual Chalkfest Maple Grove. The festival is at its original location on downtown Main Street in Maple Grove, MN between Elm Creek Boulevard and Arbor Lakes Parkway.

It’s open Saturday, June 7th and Sunday, June 8th from 10am- 6pm both days. The artwork will stay up for viewing through Monday, June 9th, weather permitting.

Not only can you see amazing art- this year there are also activities especially for families! The Kids’ Zone has two art stations with free chalk art-based activities, a hand-drawn large mandala for freeform chalking, free Johnny Pops and more.

There’s also a Chalk Art Zone for families and kids to make their own masterpieces. I think having this space is so important because my kids usually feel inspired to make their own creations after we walk around the chalk art.

There are lots of other activities going on too like free Amazing Balloons at select hours, vendors, food trucks, bracelet keychain making with Dance Complex, fun with the MiniSota Play Cafe will be on hand for tons of family fun as well! They will be hosting yard games, sand box sensory play, a temporary tattoo station, ChalkFest Bingo cards and more! My kids and I absolutely love the MiniSota Play Cafe so I’m sure their booth will be one of our first stops again this year!
