🐸Sharing a little throwback Thursday, featuring an interview with 2026 chalk artist, Craig Rogers!

Craig and Jamie are an art teacher duo from Richland Center, Wisconsin, who have been collaborating since high school. Graduates of UW-Oshkosh, they began focusing on street painting in 2010 by celebrating their wedding at their first chalk festival. Since then, they have been featured artists at numerous events, led workshops, painted murals, and taught thousands of students in the public school system. Their current inspiration stems from human interaction with nature and their two children.

We loved having them at the Festival and are already thinking about what the Chalk Art Oasis could look like next year, April 17 & 18, 2026.

🌿As we celebrate "World Environmental Day", it seems only right that we thank Sustainable Tallahassee for partnering with us to keep the 2026 Chain of Parks Art Festival eco-friendly as we celebrate a decade of sustainability!

💚Through our long-standing partnership, this year's Festival continued to build on its “Going Green” initiative. Over the weekend, Sustainable Tallahassee helped select the “Recycled Content Award” for a piece of Festival artwork made of recycled materials, hosted an information booth on sustainable living, worked with Rags2Bags to provide free reusable tote bags in the Community Corner, and featured an Electric Car display on Tunnicliff Lane.

♻Additionally, through Sustainable Tallahassee’s underwriting, Compost Community helped reduce waste in our VIP and Behind-the-Scenes areas! We appreciate their continued collaboration as we work toward a more sustainable Festival each year.
