Last weekend, the annual Chalk Walk fundraiser for Follow Your Art Community Studios brought out artists of all ages, styles, and levels to the Melrose sidewalks.
Families, businesses, and organizations sponsored artists, some of whom made chalk art thematically related to their sponsor (a rug design for marquee sponsor Melrose Oriental Rug, carrots for The Food Drive, snapshots for Hunt's Photo, and so forth) while others let their imagination run wild.
Meanwhile, community members could draw on their own squares over at Ell Pond.
Proceeds went to Follow Your Art's Arts for All program, which provides scholarships and adaptive support for students with disabilities and other special needs, ensuring that everyone in the community can tap into their own creative side.
Viewers can enjoy the free chalk gallery until the next big rain.
