STATE OF THE ARTS: Chalk The Block

Each year Chalk the Block brings more than 40,000 people to downtown El Paso to enjoy a sidewalk chalk art competition, temporary art installations, street performances, live music, and local art and food vendors.

This year’s Chalk the Block takes place October 14 - 16 and includes a fire breathing dragon, a sad clown lounge singer and a selfie wall.  

Ben Fyffe from the Museums and Cultural Affairs Department of El Paso provides the details.
