It depends! 2-4 months is typical, but we've had some last almost a year. The duration depends on the type of concrete it's on, how clean that concrete is, and the amount of foot traffic it has to endure.

Edit: I also want you to have this

Making sure it's legal is a great idea! In Seattle, because a rainwork temporary, it falls under the same category as chalk art, which is legal on public sidewalks (as long as it doesn't advertise). I learned this from a representative of the Seattle Department of Transportation. I recommend contacting your local Department of Transportation and seeing what their policies are.

Thanks for the question! I plucked an upvote out of the air for you!

Hi zoyasiamo! I hope people create funny, inspiring, interactive, and visually interesting rainworks. That's the kind we try to create! Basically, anything that would make someone walking through a rainy day smile!

We honestly can't wait to see what people make. People are so creative!

Haha yes, I see you there. I usually talk to whoever's helping me, sometimes I practice beatboxing or wave at the people who are watching from a distance. Here, I'll just give you an upvote in person.

Our goal, over anything, is to give people a reason to smile. Seeing advertisements pop up on a rainy day wouldn't make me smile, so we decline all commission requests for advertising and promotion. No hashtags, promotions, or logos (we did make the rainworks logo once, but it was somewhere where people don't walk, and we didn't put its location on the map.) We don't even put #rainworks next to the pieces we create, cause we want them to be there just for the sake of being there.
