Thesis Abstract

When starting this thesis, Nola knew she wanted to create some sort of gallery or exhibit for her project. Her idea evolved within the first couple of weeks and the traveling TAG street art exhibit was created. She wanted to create an energetic, fun and interesting exhibition that a more youthful target audience would want to view and enjoy. The goal was to create something for people to do outdoors all while enjoying art at the same time. 

TAG’s mission is to create a fun and interactive way to see street art in cities around the country. TAG street art exhibit is more than just walking the streets trying to find cool art, we will show you the way. Travelling across the country and partnering with BLICK art supplies, we are able to bring the street art to you. Every 3 months we will be stopping in a new city across the United States with major national and international artists and artists from your local community. We will also be able to host workshops thanks to BLICK so everyone can have the chance to learn. There will also be some opportunities to win free things when searching for art around the streets. 

Street art is not just graffiti, it’s about expression and love for art and cities across this country. We strive to spread the love, creativity, and passion for street art in hopes of TAG cities everywhere.
