On February 17 at 13.00-16.00 the street artist Von Bomb will conduct a stencil portrait workshop in Tartu Art Museum. The workshop will be in English.
Stencil is a widespread street art technique made famous by artists like Banksy, Shepard Fairey and Blek le Rat. Spray paint will be used to make stencils out of cardboard to get a portrait image.

Portraits will be applied on a cardboard (size A2, ca 40×60 cm) that you can take with you after the workshop.
Programme:
