May 6th, 2007..is a day that I highly recomend you mark on your calendar...I'm putting together a day of collaborations, individual projects, workshops, dj's and mc's....It's taking place in Philly at Roosevelt playground, located at hellerman and walker streets.philadelphia pa,19135 (mapquest it if you're not familiar with the area)
It will begin at10AM and end when the sun goes down..which should be around 8PM. I'll be setting up approximately,250-300 makeshift walls,and about 40 canvases for the collaborative part of the day.
I've got some of the best tattoo artists, and some of the biggest names in graffiti already participating....But, there's still plenty of room left for more artists...I should mention that it's not just spray paint goin on. You're welcome, and encouraged to use whatever medium you feel the most comfortable with...
I also NEED photographers to shoot pics. for the event. Also I'm toying with the idea of making a DVD of the event..so anyone interested in shooting that get in touch with me.(preferably at bbeckertats@yahoo.com) but I do check this site as well,just not as often...
This events getting bigger every week, and it's only february 11th... I can't imagine what it's gonna be like by may! I'd like to see some artist from this site get involved...I'll be setting up a gallery for canvases, and quality photographs..they dont have to be graffiti related at all...Like I said, theirs gonna be alot of tattoo artists involved, so dark imagery,photo manipulation, even comic books, whatever...
I'm also sellin vendors tables for 250 dollars,so if you make clothing,pocketbooks,whatever, a booth may be worth your while..
Get in touch with me if you have any questions,thanks
