Derby Neck Library to host sidewalk arts fun


DERBY - If you think sidewalk chalk is just a ho-hum childhood pastime, think again! 
Join us outside of Derby Neck Library at 1 p.m. July 3 on our front stoop to learn some chalk drawing and painting techniques. 
Together we’ll make our own sidewalk chalk and chalk paint and then use what we’ve learned to create an amazing piece of art together. 
Derby Neck Library is at 307 Hawthorne Ave.
Each participant will get their own sidewalk square to decorate, with prizes being awarded at 4:30 p.m.!
And be sure to sign up for our Youth Mailing List here to stay in the loop on cancelations and other important info: https://forms.gle/Hf9wQiLWrB4dcmgMA
