Block Party 2020

Stay tuned for 2021 updates - in progress . . .

Artists of all ages are invited to join in the fun.  Pick up a block, paint it, and then look for it in one of Lexington's shop windows this summer.
Paint them!  Collage them!  Sculpt them!
  • Our blocks are 4x4 squares of wood.  These can be picked up from a box in front of the Munroe Center for the Arts building while supplies last beginning Monday, June 1.  ONE BLOCK PER HOUSEHOLD, please!  (if you wish to supply your own block from the hardware store, there is no limit - just maintain the 4x4 size)
  • DELIVERY - Artists can drop off their work by Friday, August 21 in one of the bins outside the front door of the Munroe Center for the Arts (these will be collected daily).  
  • DISPLAY - Art blocks will be on display in the windows of Lexington retailers for the month of July (and possibly August - TBA).  Organizers and businesses are not responsible for the safety of these blocks - while there is always the potential for theft or damage outside our control, we have never had a problem in the past with ArtWalk.
  • PICK-UP - Depending on retailers' availability, art blocks will be left on display for either one or two months, please check back at this website in late August for a confirmed pick-up date.
  • 😎 Your Contact Info. - All artwork needs to come with labels that are the size of a folded index card that lists the following:  Artist Name + Title.  You can add a card with your block in a plastic bag, or enter it online ​here.
​​
  • Art blocks will be delivered to Lexington shop windows in early July.  Have fun looking at them all, and be sure to tag yours #LexBlockParty2020, and upload a photo of to our Facebook post - we look forward to seeing photos of the artists and in-process photos too!
  • ​Please note - this event does not replace ArtWalk held in the fall.  We are planning for that to be held in September this year, and will have the Call out in early July!
