5 Pointz Queens
|
This weekends me and Karl went to Queens to check out the famous 5 Pointz in Queens.
5 Pointz is the Institute of Higher Burnin' or the 5Pointz Aerosol Art Center is an industrial building and artist studio in Long Island City, Queens. The complex was first established as the Phun Phactory in 1993 by Pat DiLillo under a program called Graffiti Terminators to discourage graffiti vandalism by encouraging artists to display their work in a formal showcase.
The actual name "5 Pointz" stands for the five boroughs of New York City: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx and Staten Island.
