To celebrate we threw an art show featuring many of the artists that will be taking part in this years Special Delivery – Bay Area 2012(a large scale graffiti mural exhibit that opens September 8th, 2012).
A diverse crowd of hundreds came through the art show. We’re used to events not really cracking off until 9-10pm in Oakland, but to our surprise there were people waiting at the door before 7pm.
