Graffiti art for young professionals
On Saturday, a group of Durango’s young professionals will gather in a downtown warehouse with buckets of paint and a free-form graffiti approach to decorate the walls.
The Young Professionals of Durango are organizing the event, which will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the warehouse building on the corner of East Second Avenue and College Drive. J.
