For the past five months, Estria Invitational Graffiti Battle (EIGB) has been holding competitions across the nation searching for someone to reign supreme with their aerosol skills. The finals are here in the Bay Area. Before concluding this journey, Estria wanted to kick off the finals in style and invited the talented participants to showcase their impressive and innovative art at 1:AM gallery. They will be paying tribute to their choice of art tool, the spraycan. The killer line up includes:

Whether you are a newbie or veteran to street art, this is the show to educate yourself in the art of the spraycan. The heavy hitters are here to add some color to your walls and flavor to your sketchbooks.
Opening reception is on September 11th from 7pm – 10pm. DJ Don Kainoa, Spinnerty, and Bozak will be dropping the beats. This is a 21+ event. Exhibition will run through October 9th.
