No hefty price tag for ignoring S.F. graffiti
Wednesday, March 12, 2008
San Francisco officials have made graffiti cleanup a crusade over the past few years, pushing for the prosecution of vandals and fighting to hold private citizens accountable for tagging on their properties.
But a lack of money to pay city lawyers to go after the property owners has hobbled a much-touted anti-graffiti law, several members of the city's graffiti advisory board say.

We're starting to feel spring coming along, and itching to get outside. Sometimes it's hard to stay inspired during the winter months and keep creating, but thankfully there's enough of us here to keep churning out the art.
The blog is still chugging along, and we're working hard to make it a destination for anyone wanting to read about the intersection of art and politics.
