Held in Rome beginning of July, the now second edition of the Graffiti Jam took place at Fusolab 2.0 in Casilino, an area in the outskirts of East Rome. This time, the writers had to stick to a “Space” theme. The H2B (Hard2Buff) crew together with Roman Doors organized a 450m wide galactic theme wall to be designed by multiple generations of writers, bringing together the old school heads with the new generation. Casilino Block Party 2 Rome Italy
