One of many fine Lucasfilm traditions, the annual Lucasfilm employee Sidewalk Chalk Art Festival returned for the 11th time, bringing vivid chalk art to the pavements around the Presidio, and this years festival was no different, influenced as always by pop culture and the galaxy far, far away.

On October 5 Lucasfilm hosted its 11th annual employee Sidewalk Chalk Art Festival at its San Francisco headquarters, with an exciting new addition for 2023 – Lucasfilm’s office in Burbank joined the Festival this year, adding 11 amazing entries to the event’s 29 total on their own campus sidewalks. Braving the late summer California heat at both locales, artists from Lucasfilm and their Disney colleagues turned in a delightful mix of illustrations based on Lucasfilm, Disney, and other properties, with many of the San Francisco entries finding inspiration in a certain recent summer blockbuster.

Be sure to take a look at the article for all of the sidewalk art from this years festival.
