Sidewalk Chalk
by ProtectingMySon99 Fri Oct 21, 2011 12:01 pm
Hi all,
I do sidewalk chalk/street painting art. I am currently trying to get it off the ground as a side business as I am a single mom and need the extra income. However, I really really really want to help the Occupy movement and I feel my talents with chalk could come in handy. But I'm worried that my involvement could hurt the business side of things, so here's the ideas I had:
1. I won't use the name I'm currently using for the business (I'm not going to post it here) and simply make chalk art/messages anonymously. The only problem with this is that there are only four or so chalk artists in this town and I'm pretty visible when doing it as my business. So maybe wear a mask? Any ideas?
2. Go ahead and use the name and hope that my involvement will drum up some controversial PR and get my business name out there.
Thoughts on how to protect my business and still help Occupy?

No, unfortunately I couldn't be there.
