Expressions in Chalk Street Painting Festival

Every year in London, Canada, The Imadon Street painting Performance Group puts on 'Expressions in Chalk Street Painting Festival'. The Imadon Street Painting Performance Group is a non-profit organization, incorporated to bring the art of street painting to the citizens and artists of London, through public performances and special events, teach street painting to London youth, utilizing local artists and arts groups and to promote London as a creative arts destination.

Expressions in Chalk was first held in the parking lot of St Peter's Cathedral but soon outgrew the space and now takes place on Talbot street between King and Dundas in front of the John Labatt Center.

The 2009 Expressions in Chalk festival featured an 18 x 92 foot reproduction of the Central Ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. 9 panels painted by 9 artists and led by Internationally renowned street painter, Melanie Stimmell.
