Congratulations to our Chalk Your Walk 2021 winners! Northeast Arts KC hosted this event virtually for the second year due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, but that didn’t stop artists from decorating their walks with inspired, colorful and unique works of art.

By the end of the day, June 11, Hilary Tremel’s interactive and colorful landscape garnered the most votes and many comments.

She wins two tickets to the Kansas City Museum’s Derby Party. These tickets, valued at $150, were generously donated by the Museum. The Derby Party 2021: A Grand Reopening Celebration coincides with the museum’s reopening. Enjoy being one of the first to experience the newly restored and renovated Corinthian Hall. A ticket to Derby provides a sneak peek before the museum opens to the public this fall. Festivities on the historic grounds will include live music by Grand Marquis, southern food bites and local beverages. To learn more, or purchase a ticket, please visit kansascitymuseum.org
