Story Time and Chalk the Walk

Why choose between story time and creative play when you can enjoy both? The Town of Duck’s Story Time and Chalk the Walk combines engaging children’s stories with a colorful outdoor art activity, making it a perfect summer morning for young readers and budding artists.

The event begins on the steps of the Paul F. Keller Meeting Hall, where local partners from Island Bookstore and Duck’s Cottage Coffee & Books share entertaining stories for children and families. After story time, participants head over to Duck Town Hall to create colorful sidewalk masterpieces during Chalk the Walk. Sidewalk chalk is provided—just bring your imagination! Be sure to bring water and dress for warm weather.
