Info
In the summer of 2015, Australian artist Hego returned to the US to complete two murals he started a year prior in two neighbourhoods in America; Strawberry Mansions and East Baltimore. Murals that amplified the already existing positive messages of two local community groups; Wheelie Wayne of The 12 O'Clock Boys fame & the Positive Movement marching band and drill team. Their messages: Put down the guns, pick up some drums. Put down a gun, pick up a bike.
