Talking Walls Art
***

Talking Walls is a different kind of art studio, an interactive SPRAYground that allows – no, encourages – you to leave your mark. Talking Walls seeks to preserve the history and culture of street art by providing participants with wall-to-wall space and a unique opportunity to engage in skills and techniques of the urban art form. Talking Walls has taken our studio on the road to a number of art festivals to showcase world-renowned artists. Our artists represent a diverse range of voices that bring the color, unearth history and cultivate community. We believe art is a universal language that unites humanity like nothing else.
