Public Debate: Should the City of Pittsburgh Have Legal Graffiti Walls?

06 Oct Public Debate: Should the City of Pittsburgh Have Legal Graffiti Walls?

In partnership with the University of Pittsburgh’s William Pitt Debate Union HCUAP has invited a panel that represents the city’s Graffiti Squad, local graffiti and street artists, neighborhood council and graffiti watch members, and criminology and communication scholars to offer reflections on the possibility of creating legal graffiti walls. This serves as an opportunity to put the public, government officials, artists, and scholars in conversation in public in ways they often are not to reflect collaboratively on ways to build Pittsburgh’s capacity as a space of diversity, creative expression, and vibrant dialogue.
