Kayenta Art Village
Immerse yourself in the vibrant world of chalk art at the 15th annual Kayenta Street Painting Festival presented by Kayenta Arts Foundation. This year’s theme “Red Rock Reflections” celebrates the breathtaking beauty of our region’s red rock landscapes while incorporating an appreciation for nature and the conservation of our natural resources.
The festival brings students and professional artists together as they create the magnificent murals on asphalt canvases. Witness the magic unfold over the weekend as these artists bring the desert hues to life right before your eyes!
Join us over the weekend to take in the views (on the sidewalk and beyond), vote for your favorite artwork, wander the Art Village galleries, enjoy food trucks, live music, and loads of family fun.
