5 Pointz has been mentioned in lots of places this year, but that’s ok, it’s good people hear about it.
5 Pointz is a graffiti museum and legal painting space in Queens. The building is a many story warehouse covered on all sides, ground to roof, with art by graffiti artists. Artists live in the space, and it’s maintained by volunteers who pay volunteer hours in exchange for learning paint techniques. 5Pointz receives visitors from all over the world.
