Graffiti and Street Art Tour!
One thing that students were quick to notice about Berlin when they first arrived was that there was a lot of graffiti, and even students who were from big cities were surprised by the amount they saw here. On Wednesday, the students took place in a graffiti/street art tour that took them through the city and taught them about the history of graffiti and street art. We explored the city and talked about everything from commissioned art, to illegal graffiti in public places. Although it was 90 degrees and sunny out, the students enjoyed their tour and were able to understand a bit more about the city!
