UA&ST: Day 7

The highlight of this day was definetely the big event of the open doors in La Caja Blanca (art and cultural center of Málaga City Hall) which we were preparing for a long time. In this event participated more than 250 persons throughout the whole day.

In the morning we had basic and advanced workshops of the different elements of hip hop. Our participants were teaching classes and implementing foreground and background in the training course.

In the afternoon we started to present the "Urban Art & Social Transformation" project and the Erasmus+ program. Ana Belén Dominguez from "Iniciativa Internacional Joven" and Alejandro Morales from "El Circulo Breaking" explained their objectives, activities and results achieved throughout the week. Our international participants were sharing with the entire local population emotions and impressions and explained how they came to engage in the street art, how their desire to professionalize and act as social transformers came to their hearts.

Later in the afternoon all participants were able to show the local population their artistic skills. The DJs had a possibility to start the musical afternoon together with Dj Wave and DJ Bionic Escasso. The rapper who won the competition the previous day had the opportunity to perform in front of a large audience.

The graffiti artists participated in a competition made by Taco Bell, which requested certain parameters and provided the prize, won by Sidney from France.  The jury was formed with Malagan writer Lalone and Alfonso Navarro, representative of Taco Bell.

Finaly, there was also a break dance competition where a lot of people gathered to see the glorious energy of bboys and bgirls. DJ Wave and DJ Bionic Escasso were in charge for music and judges were XVen from Málaga, Muñeco from Badajoz and Chicano from Madrid.
