CityPlace Doral invites families to breathtaking weekend fun at Summer Chalk Fest – WSVN 7News | Miami News, Weather, Sports

I don’t know about you, but I’m a pro finger painter…but that’s not the kind of finger painting we’re talking about. There’s a festive event in Doral on Saturday to help you have some weekend fun.

The kids may be back in school, but summer at CityPlace Doral is far from over.

Claudia Marquez: “Here at CityPlace Doral you can enjoy our different restaurants, our entertainment, our beautiful fountain as well as our art installations that we do here in the center to make it unforgettable for the whole family.”

And this weekend it will be even more colourful.

Claudia Marquez: “This weekend we’re hosting our Summer Chalk Fest Festival. We have Ken Mullen who will do the chalk. We will also offer activities for the children. There will be an interactive DJ.”

Ken Mullen, also known as Mellow Monkey Art, has been involved with chalk art for about 30 years.

Ken Mullen: “I specialize in anamorphic 3D chalk art. So people see holes in the ground or things popping up and you can pose with that.”

And when it comes to the party, he’s in a tropical mood.

Ken Mullen: “There will be water and there will be dolphins and you will be able to hop on a surfboard and look like you are riding the waves.”

Ken is a busy guy and this piece is still a work in progress… but we convinced him to take a little break to paint the city Deco style.

I call that a masterpiece!

The Summer Chalk Fest is completely free.
