The Chalk Art Course offered by Heather Olsen Marx with Draw Me Nearer Ministries will equip you to expand your ministry with art, if not create one by itself. Chalk art is a great way to communicate Biblical truth to people of all ages!

Can anyone do chalk art? Chalk art is a skill that almost anyone can master. If you can sign your name legibly, you can be an effective chalk artist. Art ability is beneficial, but not necessary.

The course in chalk art has two main phases. The Phase One course offers basic chalk drawing techniques. In Advanced Chalk Art students learn over half a dozen pictures with blacklight and message as well as the ability to create their own. Heather offers personalized step-by-step instruction given to each student.
