            Saturday, July 10 – Chalk the Walk (On the boardwalk from 16th-18th Streets)

            Chalk the Walk takes over the Virginia Beach Boardwalk from 10:00am-5:00pm on Saturday, July 10, 2021, as artists and “wanna-be artists” gather to turn the boardwalk into an impromptu canvas of color!

            The theme for this year’s Chalk the Walk is The Power of the Wind.

            All participants must register by 12:30pm to qualify for the competition. All drawings must be completed by 3:30pm to be eligible for prizes. Registration is free, and all participants should bring their own chalk.

            At Chalk the Walk, participants draw four by four-foot chalk drawings for three blocks along the boardwalk.

            Competitors will complete chalk drawings to be evaluated by a panel of judges. Judges will score the drawings according to criteria such as composition, use of color, adherence to theme, and creativity. There will be three competitive divisions: Amateur, Professional, and Youth. The Youth division will be for ages 12-16.

            Trophies and cash prizes will be awarded for each division. Winners will be announced at 4:45pm on the boardwalk at 17th Street.

            Advance registration for Chalk the Walk is not required, but artists may pre-register if they wish here: https://bit.ly/3hidDbt

            There is no fee to participate, but it is recommended that artists bring their own chalk.

Virginia took another big, progressive leap on Wednesday when hundreds of new bills went into effect, with them the Virginia Values Act, Senate Bill 868.

The bill prohibits discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation at work and in housing, as well as in applying for credit and acquiring accommodations. But the bill goes further, also extending extra protections based on race, religion, age, sex, veteran status, pregnancy and more.

Governor Northam said in a statement, “This legislation sends a strong, clear message—Virginia is a place where all people are welcome to live, work, visit, and raise a family. We are building an inclusive Commonwealth where there is opportunity for everyone, and everyone is treated fairly. No longer will LGBTQ Virginians have to fear being fired, evicted, or denied service in public places because of who they are.”
