Day 84: Graffiti Candy


From Diana:
Today we had a great day. We started by going to a co-worker's housewarming & engagement celebration. The food was AMAZING and she was so welcoming. We wish her and her future hubby the best!!

After the housewarming, we headed over to the Red Bull Wrecker's Yard Graffiti Competition. I'm so glad we made it to this event. There was graffiti eye candy for 3 hours! There were 7 rounds with a surprise theme and 1 winner. The canvases got smaller with each round, making the artist stretch their creativity and skills. While the artist worked the canvas, we watched and enjoyed some good ol' hip-hop. The rooftop vibe was just what we needed to help us get a taste of home (NYC) on the other side of world. 

This is no black & white post... this is graffiti eye candy full of color. We hope you enjoy!

  3. There is always something to do! There's always something to do in major cities, you just have to look for a site listing all the events. I'm sure D.C. and Bmore have a site.
