Avenue of Art Phase 1 Unveiling With the Child Protection Center

By  | 

June 10, 2024 | Sarasota

The Child Protection Center, Inc. (CPC) partnered with the International Sarasota Chalk Festival’s Avenue of Art to illustrate the innocence of childhood as part of their permanent sidewalk mural installation project. The Avenue of Art stretches from Mound St. to the Burns Court area, and over 300 sidewalk squares will be on display by this Fall.

Over 50 sidewalk squares have been transformed into an immersive walk outside of CPC at 720 S. Orange Ave. in Downtown Sarasota. The collaboration of more than fifteen artists with Avenue of Art leadership, plus countless hours of time and planning, have created a bright, interactive, and educational section that the community is invited to come see! Partnerships included Easterseals Southwest Florida, Sarasota Children’s Museum, Lipstick Lex, Second Heart Homes, Beck Lane, Annie Dong, and numerous CPC staff. Join the Child Protection Center, the artists, and our community on June 18th, 2024, anytime from 4-6:30 PM for a free event including a ribbon cutting for phase one of the project. Guests can expect beverages, interactive activities for kids, tours of CPC, a meet-and-greet with therapy dogs of PAWS, and delicious bites by The Empanada Girl food truck.
