The Camel Project, in collaboration with the City of Reading and Department of Public Works, is hosting their annual ChalkPalooza Event on Saturday, May 10 from 10 AM to 2 PM at 13th & Union Elementary School in Reading. This chalk and bubble festival also includes a color run from 11 AM to 1 PM and car show, as well as music, magic, balloon art and more. Join the fun for a family friendly day of creativity and kindness! We invite participants of all ages to express themselves creatively in a safe, family-supportive environment. Chalk and bubbles are provided free. nPre-registration for chalk is free for all ages. It is not required. You can register at the event, but pre-registration is recommended to guarantee you’ll get a space and free chalk for your art. You can also bring your own chalk. To pre-register, go here. ChalkPalooza is a perfect example of how creativity, connection, and play can create spaces that heal, empower, and inspire positive change.
*Please note: This event will be held again on Saturday, September 6, 2025 from 10 AM to 2 PM at Renninger’s Antique and Farmer’s Market located at 740 Noble Street in Kutztown. Both events are held rain or shine.
