The event celebrates the artists participating in Chalk the Walk, taking place Oct. 21 – 23. Artists will transform 9-by-9-foot sections of sidewalk leading to the Library into a vibrant outdoor gallery celebrating literature and art.

Participants will select a favorite book and create either an artistic rendition of its cover or a reimagined interpretation using sidewalk chalk.

Registration is open through Oct. 8. To submit a book cover concept and sketch, click here. Approved participants will receive space assignments Oct. 17.

Artists will create their work Oct. 21 – 23, transforming a highly visible campus pathway into a temporary public art installation that celebrates creativity, reading, visual storytelling, and Georgia Tech spirit.

Finished works will remain on display throughout Homecoming Week, weather permitting.

Chalk the Walk is a collaboration between the Georgia Tech Library and Georgia Tech Arts.
