Handmade chalk since 1992, run by the Bowman family
Eternity Arts makes lecturer’s chalk by hand in Boyne City, Michigan. The business has been running since 1992, and it has belonged to Matt Bowman that whole time.
We sell chalk to chalk artists, street painters, schools, churches, camps, agencies, and anyone else who needs the real thing — over 60 colors, plus fluorescent and black light. Most of what we ship goes to working artists and to the people teaching the next round of them.
Matt and Bonnie Bowman
Matt started as a chalk artist in 1992 and has drawn for crowds as large as 25,000 at a time. He lived in Chicago for five years running a chalk art training program at a non-profit before returning home to Michigan in 2000 to launch Eternity Arts. He’s been making and shipping chalk from Michigan ever since. He also writes the Phase 1 curriculum, teaches Phase 2 in person once a year, and handles every order that goes out the door.
Bonnie Bowman is Matt’s wife and co-creates the chalk artwork you’ll find in the gallery. She’s also the one making sure he remembers to eat during busy season.
Matt keeps a personal site at ChalkEvangelist.com where he writes about the ministry side of the work.
