Young up-and-coming artists watch out! On Saturday 05 August and Sunday 06 August 2023, children aged 4 to 11 years and young people from 12 to 17 years can again let off steam artistically with the sidewalk chalks on the Rambla. Inspired by the great artists in the market street, they can give free rein to their creativity in an area of one square meter.
In Wilhelmshaven, children and young people can become artistically active
Children StreetArt Festival
Children between the ages of four and eleven are free to choose their own motif. Whether they conjure up castles in the air out of chalk, create soap bubbles out of paint or make dream images real - the emphasis here is on individuality. From 4.30 p.m., it will also be worthwhile for the young artists to pay a visit to the stage on the Rambla. There, the youngsters can look forward to a raffle of attractive vouchers and non-cash prizes for their efforts.
Youth StreetArt Festival
Young people between the ages of 12 and 17, on the other hand, will take part in a competition like the StreetArt professional artists with their art. This year's motto "What inspires you?" is intended to get the young artists thinking. In this way, they can paint impressions from their lives onto the street. In order to optimally promote the talents, they will be provided with professional street painting chalk. On Sunday, a jury will judge the works of art. The winners will be announced around 5 p.m. and can take home a high-quality pastel chalk set and a StreetArt trophy donated by the stonemasonry company Steingerecht.
Participation is free of charge for the children and young people. This can be realized not least thanks to the support of the Gerd Möller Foundation and some material sponsors. The Children & Youth StreetArt Festival is organized by the KulturGut e.V. association.
