Letter Style & Mural Production Class by Twick1 at 1AM SF Gallery September 17, 2009

1AM SF is not only an art gallery celebrating urban and street art but also an establishment committed to conveying the positive aspects of this misunderstood form of art. The classes are aimed to give an outlet for people to express themselves creatively and raise awareness to the urban arts. The four classes offered at 1AM are Stencil, Art of Graffiti “Sketching Letters”, Toy Modification, and the Letter Style and Mural Production. We give students first hand experience in the world of street and urban art by teaching them the history, culture, art styles of graffiti and having them paint a mural on one of the busiest streets of San Francisco. 1AM, short for First Amendment, encourages people to freely share their thoughts and ideas through the medium of art in a responsible and innovative way.

None other than influential muralist Twick1 teaches 1AM’s Letter Styles and Mural Production class. In his class, students will learn graffiti history, letter-styles, backgrounds, effects, color schemes, and the laws pertaining to graffiti in San Francisco. After learning the fundamentals, the class as a whole brainstorms a positive message and translates it into design that they get to paint on the exterior wall of 1AM gallery. All materials for the class are provided.

-Each class consists of 4 sessions.
-The class is $160/person.
-Ages 18+ Welcome (People under 18 require signed parental/guardian consent form).
