STEPHEN WILLIAMS MURAL AND SHOW 6/26

Posted in Current+Past Shows, News on June 26th, 2008 by breeze

LAST THURSDAY TOMORROW 7PM: STEPHEN WILLIAMS
WHAT: Stephen Williams solo show
WHEN: Thursday, June 26th, 7pm
WHERE: NE 10th and Alberta
AND: DJ Jammotron
AND: Keg of New Belgium!!

Now that the real summer months have hit home, we are honestly a bit scared for the crowds rolling up and down Alberta. Come help us hold it down on 10th St and celebrate the solo show of Stephen Williams. With a long history of spray paint use, Stephen has moved onto the canvas and has an amazing attention to detail and flow. He is definitely one of Portland’s hidden gems.

Stephen is working on an instore mural right now (behind my desk, yeah!). That blue wall was lookin a little boring so thanks Stephen.

DJ Jammotron, an old school hip hop DJ hailing from Chicago, is kind enough to grace us with his talent tomorrow night. All you music heads should know who this cat is…

AND - New Belgium Brewing is so effing rad for sponsoring the show this month. Thank you soooo much!

FREEWALL UPDATES

Posted in News on June 16th, 2008 by breeze

Soooo….with this sunny weather the freewall has been hit almost everyday. Super stoked it’s getting used. Here’s a flic of one of our fave artists, Raskoe, (see February show) who just moved to Portland from Columbus, OH. He woke up at like 6am this morning like a weirdo and was bored so he came and hit up the wall.

ALSO: the community spray paint crate is EMPTY so for all y’all who have been using it, donate some half empty paint. Gimme a break, runnin the crate dry! WTF.
