RIVERLIFE CHALK FEST

Immerse yourself in a vibrant celebration of art and community at the Third Annual Riverlife Chalk Fest, marking the start of summer along Pittsburgh's riverfronts!

Join us Saturday and Sunday of Memorial Day Weekend with chalk art and local food and drink.

Isabella Street and Allegheny Landing on Pittsburgh's North Shore will be transformed into a bustling hub of artistic expression. Witness the magic as 25 professional chalk artists from over 12 states visit Pittsburgh to adorn the streets with breathtaking murals, turning the pavement into a canvas of boundless imagination.

This year's festival launches Riverlife's 25th year of reclaiming Pittsburgh's rivers. Riverlife and the Pirates have teamed up to offer discounted tickets to those participating! Plus, a portion of each ticket sold will be donated back to Riverlife.

Since 1999, Riverlife has worked to create, activate, and celebrate Pittsburgh's riverfronts. A nonprofit leader in building a community vision for Pittsburgh's riverfronts, Riverlife has overseen a $150 million investment in the city's waterfront transformation, catalyzing $5 billion in related economic development, arts and culture, and ecological sustainability on or adjacent to the city's riverbanks. Riverlife centers its work on the belief that the riverfronts belong to everyone, and world-class riverfront experiences can be created for all using community-driven, equitable development and high-quality, regenerative design.
