The two BMX legal Graffiti art sheets that were taken to Tandridge from Lamport this date were:
1. a sheet that has "BMX" painted on it.. that was painted at "MayDay", a fundraising event for http://TheGatehouse.org .. a child abuse investigation and support location in Toronto. Richard Baxter, the graffiti art teacher at Humber Summit Middle School in Toronto, known to the kids as 'Mr. Boxta' painted the piece at this event.
2. Kedre is part of the legal graffiti art / B-Boy Crew called 'Tribal Bridgez Crew'. The piece was painted at the 14 Division Community Fun Day, a huge event organized by students in the Empowered Student Partnership program http://ESPOnline.ca at Fort York, Toronto.
The BMX project is a community building activity funded by Mike Heaton personally, and the legal graffiti art is facilitated and funded by Cst Scott Mills and Toronto Crime Stoppers. Community CAVE have also contributed to funds for paint supplies, and operate the Toronto Crime Stoppers T-Shirt Re-Design contest in partnership with Toronto Crime Stoppers. Kids can enter their art work online in the contest at http://CommunityCAVE.com .. then vote on their favourite entries. The winners are chosen when the 2009 contest closes on September 15, 2009 and are eligible to win $500.00 in prizes, and get their art work on the next Toronto Crime Stoppers t-shirt.
