Pastels on 5th Street to raise funds for Alternatives to Violence
LOVELAND — Pastels on 5th Street, a festival and fundraising event for Alternatives to Violence, will take place on Saturday, Sept. 14. Approximately 150 artists will be in downtown Loveland creating chalk art.
The free festival brings together artists, businesses and vendors to transform downtown Loveland into a sidewalk art gallery. The festival will take place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Fifth Street between Cleveland and Lincoln avenues.
“Our team is thrilled to be returning this year with all the talented artists, vendors, music and fun that the community loves. Many artists have told me this is their favorite event of the year,” event director Vicky Paul-Bryant said in a written statement. “We are especially excited to welcome Dutch Bros Coffee as our first-ever presenting sponsor! Their support over the years has been invaluable, and we are so grateful to elevate our partnership with them. Their sponsorship will help make a life-changing impact on the many lives Alternatives to Violence helps in our community.”
