June 20, 2011 – The Pasadena Chalk Festival 2011 was held at Paseo Colorado, in Pasadena, this Saturday and Sunday. Over 600 artists painted on the concrete floors, young and old, producing from simple to extraordinary art. On Sunday, the event closed down the part of Colorado Blvd immediately next to Paseo Colorado, converting it into a classic car show, a helipad, and a dance floor.
Those in attendance were encouraged to vote for their favorite chalk painting. The event was free of charge, but, needless to say, it gave a nice boost to the Paseo Colorado businesses, with favorites like the Yard House, El Cholo, MAC, and so forth.
