Piece Fest | Support Inner City Youth | Graff Lab

Piece Fest Los Angeles | A Music & Street Art Festival to Benefit Inner City Youth | w/ DJ Lethal | Headlining: Andre Legacy & a Special Performance by Shifty from Crazy Town | Others TBA in the Following Weeks | Limited Time for Discounted Tickets

Welcome to LA's first MUSIC & STREET-ART FESTIVAL!
We are bringing together some of LA's hottest new bands and most talented street artists to celebrate this burgeoning artistic movement. The event will be held at The Graff Lab, an urban sanctuary for artists, kids, and young adults that opened after the Los Angeles public school district cut its after-school art programs in 2006. World famous for its graffiti and aerosol art, the Graff Lab is dedicated to providing artists with a safe space to develop their skills. At the Graff Lab artists don’t have to worry about getting harassed by the police or by gangsters; they are free to concentrate on their craft. But the Graff Lab is more than a public art space. The Graff Lab offers free tutoring, counseling, dance & music lessons to adults and kids. To support this cause, we're throwing a street art & music festival. During the festival, we'll also be filming the pilot for a reality based competition show about Street Art featuring celebrity judges, hosts, & performers.
