The award winning show is here. Critics said:
"A Riveting experience", "JAP is just divine when he touches white", "If all parties were like Graffiti i'd never need a phone book for phone numbers!"
The graffiti experience is not only an event created for the enjoyment of patrons but also for budding graffiti and graphics artists, writers, photographers. It allows for the entire behind the scenes cast some time behind the camera to receive exposure from marketing the event and simultaneously themselves.
The ART Show

The actual organising of the art show was surprisingly simple. The tasks included getting the necessary permission from each institution getting the support of the national museum who volunteered equipment and rounding up the artist to get their stuff together. The first art show was held at COSTAATT City Campus’ cafeteria. With good music, beautiful displays, fun enthusiastic organisers and a visit from Mr. Box head himself the entire vibe was one of pure excitement and anticipation for the main event. After COSTAATT, the next stop was UWI. Getting the art show on at U.W.I. specifically started off a bit shakier than at costaatt but besides the minor glitches the event went quite well. The main objectives were met, basically to give the art propulstion into student life and inject some word of mouth about Graffiti 3 on its way.
THE ARTIST

| They say he could draw anything |
Kalifa Damani is a skilful sketch artist, photographer and UWI psychology student. The empire wishes to invite any interested artist to contact them if they are interested in setting up their own booth at the event.
Isiah Lindsey is JAP INC. ..What we meant to say was... The art show featured art by local artist and graffiti experience veteran Isiah “Jap” Lindsey. Isiah has been a part of “Graffiti” from the beginning. After the use of his talents at the first Graffiti photo shoot in 2009, his publicity sky rocketed and his undeniable skills were acknowledged by the masses. In an interview, Jap explained that for him it has been a pleasure being supported by 3E with the opportunity to display his work at all Graffiti parties to date. He said, "The art show this year being at different locations has really done a lot to promote Graffiti and the art I do." The EEEmpire hopes that through the development of a "Graffiti Village" a lot more artist would come towards with their artistic contributions and have the opportunity to expose their art to hundreds of patrons. This will to the benefit and greater good of the Graffiti art form and give this art form its much deserved respect and acknowledgment. The Graffiti Village refers to a large area of booths at the upcoming Graffiti event. These booths will have anything from pineapple chow to airbrush artiste.
Up next for the art show is a stop at UTT
