Everything You Need To Know About Chalk The Walk Sylvan Beach

Looking for a fun and colorful way to spend the day in Sylvan Beach? Grab your chalk and your creativity—Chalk the Walk is back for 2025.

Originally just for kids, this year’s event is open to artists ages 5 to 105, so whether your little one loves to draw, or you’re a seasoned sidewalk Picasso, you’re invited to take part. It’s happening Saturday, July 5th, with a rain date of Sunday, July 6th, and kicks off at 9AM along the Sylvan Beach boardwalk. This is the perfect way to truly soak in the fun of summer.

The best part? Cash prizes are up for grabs—and it’s totally free to enter. If you pre-register, you’ll even score free chalk, but organizers recommend bringing your own stash too for the best color variety.
