Additional Information
Lick of Paint Fest pays homage to Sheffield's long history of graffiti culture, paint jams and events that helped establish a thriving scene in the city.
Festival founders, Megan Russell (AKA Peachzz) and Alastair Flindall are on a mission to create a biannual celebration, while creating year-round projects that showcase local talent and invite fresh faces to our creative community.
They believe art isn’t just for galleries and it should brighten up your everyday.
