Submitted by the Event Organizer
Join the MCCLA, the San Francisco Arts Commission (SFAC) and the Department of Public Works (DPW) for a panel discussion on the history of public mural art in San Francisco. Featuring celebrated urban artists Francisco “Twick” Aquino, Jonathan Brumfield, Jet Martinez and Marina “Mincho” Perez-Wong, panelists will discuss the challenges that graffiti artists face in transitioning from tagging to creating murals that serve a public function.
The featured panelists have participated in the SFAC/DPW StreetSmARTS program, which connects urban artists with private property owners to create vibrant murals that reduce the likelihood of vandalism. This event offers the artists’ perspective about the impact the program has had on the community.
