The difference between art and graffiti is --- permission When: Sat Apr 27, 2013 9AM-11:30AM Where: Gresham City Hall Council Chambers 1333 NW Eastman Pky Get Map!

Come learn about graffiti, what some of it means and why we need to clean it up so quickly. Gresham Police Officer Matt Fagan is our local expert on the subject and is a great presenter. We will also have a representative from Code Compliance to talk about why folks may get violation notices around graffiti and again, how important it is to clean it up. Cathy Harrington, Office of Neighborhoods and Community Engagement, will talk about our need for volunteers to help clean it up.

Getting rid of graffiti is everyone’s goal (well, except for the taggers). We hope this community discussion on the topic will not only help educate, but also motivate.

Come with questions -- Leave with answers
