About this Event
The Outdoor Classroom is an experiential and place-based learning experience. We turn the streets into a classroom for immersive learning. Your teacher for Street Art 101 is Kady Yellow.
Note: Class will take place indoors due to Fla heat, with an outdoor gallery on site*
For more than ten years, Yellow has devoted her life to organizing, promoting, advocating for (and once creating) murals, public art/street art, and graffiti. In a 2015 move to New Orleans after teaching an undergraduate class on the subject matter through the State University of New York, Yellow earned a Master’s Degree in Art Administration and published her first book on the subject area. Yellow is a graffiti scholar and has helped implement hundreds of mural projects around the world.
The Book.
Over 200 colorful pages, the author looks at how this ephemeral art form has adorned the streets— coming and going—and shares the context of the murals, tags, wheatpastes, slap-ups, and masterpieces. The author embarks on a journey to educate the reader on the different history, tools/techniques and practices of three distinct art
forms: murals, street art, and graffiti.
A first of its kind, this full-color, large-format, hardcover book documenting underground New Orleans street art. The book offers never-before-told stories featuring street art history over and exclusive first time interviews, comprehensive biographies, and gorgeous photographs documenting 70 artists; which serves as the textbook for this class.
