I think I’m too uncool, or at least un-emo, to understand this BUT graffiti and laser graffiti sounded awesome enough to sell me, and Spiderhouse is right near me. So here are the deets of this show curated by Nathan Nordstrom and Warren McKinney featuring live aerosol painting and laser tagging by some of Austin’s favorite and emerging graffiti artists. It’s a kickoff for the upcoming Pieced Together tour and a fundraiser for the Austin EcoSchool. Works will be on display April through April 9th.
