Neighborhood Graffiti Tour

2018 | July 19, 2018

Last week, students went on a walking tour of El Raval, the neighborhood we call home during our stay in Barcelona, to learn about the history of graffiti and see numerous examples of contemporary work. The experience was interesting, informative, and left us all feeling more connected to the local culture in our immediate surroundings.
