CA Student Thrives at Summer Graffiti Camp
Columbia Academy eighth-grader Arkinzie Richards was selected to participate in the Minneapolis Institute of Art 2017 Graffiti Camp this past summer.
Students worked under the guidance of local artist Peyton Scott Russell. The graffiti camps are designed to help participants learn about graffiti as an exciting art form. The focus was on education in history, letter structure, aerosol techniques and execution of personal and collaborative murals. Arkinzie was able to experiment in three mediums; drawing, paper collage and aerosol.
Congratulations, Hylander!
