Standing in the vacant lot beside Modified Arts, 407 East Roosevelt, this plywood wall created by (from left in photo) students Marcial White, Jordan Womack, and Ben Hyde, provides attendees with a chance to pick up some spray paint and create "live art chaos" alongside experienced graf workers in a collaborative effort while Marcial (a.k.a. DJ Darkstar) spins drum 'n' bass jams. The Living Space is open for tagging on Friday, March 2, starting at 6 p.m., and the event is free.
