Mission: Pinellas Diaspora Arts Project, Inc. (PDAP) strengthens the well-being of communities in Tampa Bay by expanding access to arts, technology, media, and civic exchange. We create opportunities for people of all ages to participate in creative and educational experiences in effort to inspire personal growth, community connection, and lifelong learning.
Join us on the Deuces [22nd Street South between 7th Ave S & 9th Ave S] on Saturday, May 2, 2026, at the 4th Tampa Bay Chalk Festival! Over 20 community artists will create beautiful sidewalk art with the theme “OUR WATERY FUTURES 2026!”
Plus — our first Water Consciousness Community Gathering at WADA/ArtsXchange!
Join local experts and water advocates to learn about how they work to protect our waterways and educate the community about our environmental issues! Plus, learn about water researcher Dr. Masaru Emoto…take part in a community mural — and take part in our community tea service!
