Palmetto Downtown Main Street (PDMS) invites professional street and chalk artists to apply for the 2027 Palmetto Chalk Art Festival, taking place Saturday and Sunday, January 23–24, in historic downtown Palmetto, Florida.

Following the success of our inaugural festival, PDMS is expanding the professional artist program for 2027. Approximately 15–25 professional artists will be selected to transform downtown pavement into vibrant works of temporary public art.

The Palmetto Chalk Art Festival brings together artists, residents, visitors, local businesses, live entertainment, food, vendors, and family activities for a two-day celebration of art, creativity, community, and downtown Palmetto.

There is no fee to apply as a professional chalk artist.
