The Loop Newspaper - Tehachapi's Online Community News & Entertainment Guide

Chalk on the Walk returns this summer. Mark your calendars for Aug. 14.

This community event is open to all ages and talent levels. Come join us for a day of fun in the sun and unleash your inner artist and help us turn the sidewalks of Downtown Tehachapi into a beautiful sea of chalk art.

The event is $15 and you get a cool drawstring logo backpack and a full set of artist chalks. Proceeds go directly to art supplies for local area schools in September. To sign up, visit Gallery 'N' Gifts, 100 W. Tehachapi Blvd., to pick up a registration form or find it online at http://www.galleryngifts.com/upcoming-events.

Tehachapi Valley Arts Association and Gallery 'N' Gifts are hosting the event and not actively seeking out sponsors this year out of respect to struggling businesses. But, if you are a business or individual inclined to sponsor, please contact TVAA President Gale Caldwell at (661) 822-6062.
