Lakeside Arts Foundation invites Lewisville ISD High School Juniors and Seniors, intending to major in any arts-related field, to participate in Scholarship Art Contest at Chalk This Way to earn one of three possible scholarships. Contestants will be given a 6 x 6 foot area of concrete and professional quality chalk, to create a work of art, in six hours. The First Place scholarship is $1,200, Second Place is $700 and Third Place is $500.
Chalk This Way, at ColorPalooza, takes place on April 27, 2024 outside Lewisville City Hall from 10 AM to 5 PM.
