In-person at MODA | All Ages
Sundays are fun days, so MODA’s throwing a party on the plaza every second Sunday of the month!
Join us on May 12th from 1:00-5:00 PM for our Midtown Blooms Chalk the Block Party!
We’re going to be chalking the block by filling sidewalk squares on both sides of Peachtree Street with floral bouquets. Everyone is invited to participate. Just pull out some chalk, choose your favorite floral design, and let your creativity bloom as you help us fill the sidewalk with beautiful flowers.
How to Join Us:
Reserve your square by signing up HERE (or through the button below) and filling out the questions. You can chalk a block on your own, or you can bring your friends or family to join the fun! (Limit 4 per team.)
Show up in front of MODA by 1:00 PM on Sunday, May 12th, to let us know you’re here and claim your square! You can begin right after. MODA will provide you with some basic chalk, but you are encouraged to bring your own as well, so you have all the colors you’ll need.
