St+art India Foundation is a huge community and space for artists to express themselves on the largest canvas available – the streets of the city. The organization has five co-founders, and many street artists and volunteers as part of the movement.

As part of their larger focus of making urban street art more accessible, they have been organizing month-long festivals in cities such as Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore in the past, solely dedicated to making and spreading the word about street art. In Delhi, the most notable work was the street art in the Lodhi district, and the tin can trucks.

The crew is coming down to Mumbai in the months of October–December for a large art fest and everyone is invited to join in full-time either as part of their production {and logistics} team, communications department, content/ social media, or as a volunteer on-ground.

From mid-September to December, over 30 Indian as well as international artists will come together and liven up spots of Mumbai with exciting areas. Dharavi, Mahim-Churchgate train stretch and Sassoon Docks are speculated to be the locations. and  Not just that, they will also host workshops, talks, screenings and a lot more for you to attend over the months.

So, We're Saying...

Thought art should be spelt bo-ring instead, and probably belongs inside galleries? Think again, while you look up their work here.
