Lisbon's Grey-Haired LATA 65 Seniors Become Graffiti Artists

My Modern Met features a most wonderful story on Lisbon, Portugal’s LATA 65. This class is introducing more than 100 senior citizens to youth culture by teaming the grey-hair set with well-known street artists. The students learn to make their own stencils and create their own street tags, bringing colorful artistry to neglected neighborhoods.

LATA 65 was developed by the Cowork Lisboa in partnership with Wool – Covilhã Urban Art Festival.
