They forecast flooding rains during our biggest annual fundraiser, Chalktoberfest. Let's flood the internet with chalk art instead!
The Marietta Cobb Museum of Art is the nonprofit organization behind the beloved event Chalktoberfest, bringing together extraordinary chalk artists from around the world each year to transform Marietta Square into a breathtaking outdoor gallery.
While we've weathered rain before, this year's forecast of dangerous winds and potentially flooding rains forced us to make the heartbreaking decision to cancel Chalktoberfest 2026.
Chalktoberfest is our largest annual fundraiser, supporting exhibitions, arts education, community outreach, and museum operations throughout the year.
We're launching CHALK FLOOD — #ChalkFloodMCMA, inviting chalk artists around the world to create wherever they are and share their masterpieces by tagging @chalktoberfest and @mariettacobbartmuseum.
