As part of their larger focus of making urban street art more accessible, they have been organizing month-long festivals in cities such as Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore in the past, solely dedicated to making and spreading the word about street art.
The crew has come down to Mumbai for 3 months, October–December, for a large art fest and everyone is invited to join in full-time either as part of their production {and logistics} team, communications department, content/ social media, or as a volunteer on-ground.
From mid-September to December, over 30 Indian as well as international artists has come together and liven up spots of Mumbai with exciting areas. Dharavi, Mahim-Churchgate train stretch and Sassoon Docks are speculated to be the locations. and Not just that, they will also host workshops, talks, screenings and a lot more for you to attend over the months.
