Description

Street art is no longer just an act of rebellion – it’s a tool for collaboration, empowerment, and creative connection. Dr Lee Bofkin, CEO of Global Street Art (Europe’s leading hand-painted advertising organisation) and the visionary behind the celebrated London Mural Festival, will explore the transformative role of public artworks in breaking barriers, amplifying community voices, and inspiring global audiences.

From Banksy, who challenges social and political norms, to Mr Doodle, whose playful creations have captivated millions on social media, attendees will learn how street art builds a deeper connection between artists and communities.

This session will resonate with marketers, creatives, policymakers, and visual arts enthusiasts eager to understand how art can redefine how we engage with the spaces around us.
