Graffiti is for all ages?
Graffiti and street art often widen the gap between young people and older people, but there is an organization in Lisbon that does exactly the opposite. LATA 65 fights age stereotypes by distributing paint cans, masks and gloves to pensioners and thus turning them into street artists. The organization also finds free places in the city that could be painted.
On its Facebook account, LATA 65 states that its goal is to bring older and younger generations closer together through art, to engage the elderly in new forms of contemporary art, and most importantly, to entertain them. Let's see what it looks like!
