Graffiti on Park
PRINT / EVENT DESIGN
ARTIST MANAGER
Athenaeum school of the arts
Abstract
In November 2012, I was invited to be the Artist Manager for Athenaeum’s School of the Arts‘s bi-monthly A-List event in San Diego. While I had curated art events in the past, this was definitely the biggest undertaking for me. The school specifically wanted to host a graffiti event, a topic of the art world that I had been immersing myself for over a year prior. This was the perfect opportunity to design an entire event on a subjet that is not widely shared with the public.
