About La Strada dei Pastelli Chalk Art Festival
La Strada dei Pastelli Chalk Art Festival is produced by Tualatin Valley Creates and supported by the Host Sponsor, the City of Hillsboro. The annual summer festival in Hillsboro, Oregon is an immersive community engagement distinct from all others offered in the Portland Metro area of Oregon’s Washington, Clackamas, or Multnomah Counties. This Oregon chalk art festival provides a window into the creative process wherein festival goers can engage with nationally-recognized and emerging visual artists as they carefully manipulate bold, colorful pigments to produce huge, temporary drawings down the center of the street(s); most averaging 10’x10’. Festival-goers come from all over the USA to watch as artists work in real-time on their street paintings.
Simultaneous to the visual arts exhibitions, local performing artists fill the air with rhythm and sound from the festival’s main stage and multiple pop-up locations int he event footprint. Local art vendors line 2nd and 3rd Avenues offering unique items and inspirations to attendees. Attendees of all ages are encouraged to take part in hands-on activities being provided by local nonprofit organizations. The annual summer art festival, held in Downtown Hillsboro’s Cultural Arts District, combines community engagement and art appreciation into one FREE fun-filled weekend!
From its creative core to all of the business partners involved, La Strada dei Pastelli’s goal is to build visibility for Washington County’s unique and diverse community assets.
