5th Annual Chalk Festival
ATC’s Chalk Festival 2009 was held June 6th in Chicago’s Oz Park. The day was a tremendous success, raising over $27,000 which will go directly into ATC’s art therapy program for the 2009-2010 school year. In addition to our financial supporters, there were many generous in-kind sponsors that enabled us to execute the event with minimum expenses.
Thank you especially to our Chalk Festival 2009 Chair Susan Burden and committee members: Katie Cirre, Katie Colvin, Julie Cronin, Christy Drackett, Tara Gallagher, Tina Hapner, Melissa Harlan, Kim Howie, Danielle Hrzic, Margie Koerner, Elly Koopersmith, Deanna Mandarino, Emily McCall, Anne Prikos, Rachel Ryterske, Sandy Walker,
Highlighting the day was the talented artists and the incredible artwork that was created. Now in its fifth year, the Chalk Festival has established itself as one of Chicago’s premier summer art festivals.

- Kate Tully and Andy Fagiolo, for “Fries on the Side”
