Reimagining Urban Spaces: Graffiti at Turkey Bend

1–4pm

Get a sneak peek of BBP’s dramatic East End destination, Turkey Bend! The tour will be followed by a panel discussion of the role graffiti plays in helping us understand the past and envision the future of urban spaces. Turkey Bend is a former industrial site that will become a cultural and recreational hub within Buffalo Bayou East. Complete with a warehouse, tunnel, and waterfront wharf, this site has accumulated layers of graffiti over the years. Panelists will discuss the creation, curation, and preservation of graffiti as well as share initial plans for this unique destination.

Generous support provided by The Cynthia and George Mitchell Foundation. Buffalo Bayou Partnership is funded in part by the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance.
