Kingsport Parks and Recreation offering Chalk the Park

The Kingsport Parks and Recreation Department wants you to unleash your inner artist and enjoy an afternoon of decorating the sidewalks of Borden Park.

Join us on June 26 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. for our Chalk the Park event in at the George Bradly Jr., shelter at Borden Park (901 Lamont Street). Sidewalk chalk will be provided (until supplies last).

“We’re encouraging families to come down, unleash their inner artist and decorate the sidewalks with vibrant chalk art,” said Program Administrator Laura Williams. “Whether you’re a pro or just someone who loves to doodle, Chalk the Park promises to be a colorful, creative event for all ages.”

Though the event is free, Kingsport Parks and Recreation officials are asking folks to register to know approximately how many people will be showing up.
