STREET ART FESTIVAL (graffiti/murals) - Teams volunteering (NEW)

KULTURNO IZOBRAZEVALNO DRUSTVO PINA

Zavod za mladino, kulturo in turizem

Koper, Slovenia

Description

The demand for locations for graffiti and the related subculture in the Municipality of Koper grew a lot, so in 2022 the Youth center Koper started organizing a multi-day graffiti festival called Street Art Fest Koper. Many stakeholders in the field of culture in the Municipality of Koper, as well as young people, participate in the selection of the locations of the city paintings. In addition to areas for drawing and graffiti, the festival also offers a rich accompanying program and workshops on the topic of graffiti and stencil preparation, guided tours of already painted underpasses, lectures on the topic of street art and a music program that illuminates current urban culture. With the festival, we want to support young up and coming street artists, continue to support street art and at the same time promote one of the most important contemporary art movements of the 21st century.
