The group exhibition comprises work of 8 local South Florida artists which will be displayed on billboards and bus shelters across the Wynwood Art District.  Curated by Co-founders Travis Rix and Justin Aversano, this is the group’s second public art exhibition, the previous one transforming spaces in Brooklyn, New York.
