Paint the Street

Looks like this event has already taken place.

Sat, Jun 28 , 2025 • 11:00am - 7:00pm

619 E Washington Street, Springfield, IL 62701

The Springfield Art Association is hosting a community block party where you literally paint the streets of downtown Springfield! Visitors will enjoy this unique outdoor gallery on the day of the event, and for months to come.

Paint the Street is where the Springfield Art Association takes over Washington Street in Downtown Springfield and paint 6 ft x 6 ft squares. Each square registration will receive one paint supply bucket (including the tempera paint we will be using which is water soluble/washable), one giveaway bag with goodies from sponsors, and one Paint the Street t-shirt.
