Channel the creative… legally
Policeman leaves his mark on city’s graffiti artists
Toronto policeman, Constable Scott Mills, also known as “GraffitiBMXCop” on Twitter, gets creative about graffiti. His idea…? Why not find legal ways for graffiti artists to work. Art, mentoring, positive interactions with police and local business all work to reduce the ‘revolving door’ for many youth.
Constable Mills also maintains a Youtube channel, LegalGraffitiArt, which has more than 300 uploads of legal graffiti projects.
