The Binary Graffiti Club. Call for Participants.

Would you like to be part of something fun, arty, in London later in September and October? The Binary Graffiti Club is looking for volunteers to take part in an experimental art project. The BGC, formed of a group of young members aims to explore themes of control and identity in the city in response to a sense of disillusionment and lack of trust as well as a general apathy within youth culture. We are seeking to collaborate and invite individuals and groups to take part in a series of workshops and activities that will ask the participants to be active and engaging in both their own environment and local community.
