Art transforms neighbourhoods.
167/B Street is an urban art lab founded in Lecce in 2012. We create murals, festivals and workshops together with the people who live in the neighbourhoods. We work in Salento, across Italy and in Europe.
Why urban art?
We believe art can build community, open up new ways of seeing and change how people see places and each other. That is why we work closely with schools, associations, and local and international networks.
PARTICIPATORY
ART
Every mural starts from a dialogue with the people who live in the neighbourhood. We listen to the place before we paint.
URBAN
REGENERATION
We turn abandoned or anonymous spaces into places of beauty, identity and encounter.
NON-FORMAL
EDUCATION
Our workshops bring urban art into schools, prisons and vulnerable communities.
INTERNATIONAL
PROJECTS
Since 2012 we have worked with artists and partners in Italy, Albania, Poland, Greece, Ireland, Belgium and Luxembourg.

Street art in Lecce
