Once upon a time, there was a charity chalk art event in Columbus. It’s name was Via Colori. The event started out in Naples. And events like it were licensed out to other charities, in other cities. Eventually it made its way to Columbus. And then it found its way out of Columbus. History and discussion here at the CU.
The event was on for this year. Then off. Then tentatively on. Then positively off. Then miraculously on. It won’t be called the Via Colori. But there will be chalk. And there will be pavement. And I’m sure, there will be fun.
Unofficial announcement is here, again at the CU. No time was announced. But, let’s assume daylight. The date is Saturday September 8 and Sunday September 9. At the North Market. If you want to participate as an artist, e-mail Mary at mmartineau@northmarket.com.
I’ll definitely be there. Except not at 3:30. I’ll be watching Michigan play Oregon. OSU fans will probably be there at noon, because OSU’s opponent that day is the Zips. OSU’s game will be televised on the Big Ten Network. Which means, they won’t be televised. Who carries that network anyways?
