Guests will then be invited to leave their own mark on the walls of Leake Street. Running from 6.30pm to 7.30pm, these workshops will include overalls, masks and spray paint.
The classes will be accompanied by live music from talented musicians from Busk London’s roster of emerging talent. Busk London is the world’s largest street performance initiative, curating over 12,000 hours of live street music across the Capital each year.
