“It is great to see the community come together downtown during CR Live Streets,” says Robin Mitchell, Recreation and Culture Manager. “The Evening Street Market and Battle of the Brushes were huge successes, and we can’t wait to welcome the community back for the Chalk Art Festival. Join the competition or simply watch the fun, but don’t miss this public chalk art exhibit!”
