Here's our artists and winners for the 2026 Chalk Walk!!
First, a big thanks to all of this years participants. Judging gets harder every year! They all did a great job of bringing their visions to life and braved some hot sun to do it. You are all winners to us!
Second, we would like to give a big thanks to our neighborhood sponsors. Tried to make this post last night and Facebook decided we had "too many tagged!" and wouldn't allow it.😳 What a great problem to have because it shows how much support the businesses in the Arts District give to each other. I will tag them in the comments so they can get the recognition they greatly deserve. Sponsorships go a long way to provide prizes and supplies for this event and makes this kind of thing possible.
We would like to give a shout out to our venders that add so much to making events fun. Mandalynn Bakery and Un rinconcito de mexico filled the air and out stomachs with goodness!
Extra special thanks goes out to one of our sponsors, The Wheel Barrel for not only being a sponsor but also generously donating a meal to each of our chalk art contestants! It was a big highlight to their day and a welcome chance to refuel.
Next, we want to thank Staci Dawn and Pedro Concepcion for their unwavering championship of the NOTO Arts & Entertainment District. Their dedication continues to drive the growth and fun that the neighborhood generates.
Finally, we want to give a huge THANK YOU to the Topeka community for choosing to spend their Saturday enjoying the district and doing such a lovely job of decorating the sidewalks! We are here because of you!!
