We believe what you know is not as important as how fast you can learn.
This is no place for the slow.

essentially bringing the museum to the street."
One central idea of SMoA is that it’s the first "public" art museum, meaning that not only can anyone in the city freely observe the art, but also, anyone can participate in creating it. Blank museum labels are freely available on the website, and people can submit photos of new works as they appear.
Of course there can’t really be a permanent collection, as nothing is permanent--or, for that matter, owned, when it comes to street art. But that’s the beauty of the project, which recognizes the ephemeral, evolving nature of the city, and celebrates beauty where you find it.
