GraffitiartistAnt Steelhas always enjoyed using his art to bring joy to the community.

But, as Steel points out, it’s actually a perfect pairing.

And he’s happy to share those lessons with others.

It’s something that has given him a new sense of purpose.

The Cathedral staff have been so welcoming and excited for me to join them this year.

I already feel deeply connected.

Seeing students connect to the art in workshops is amazing.

Steel understands the power of graffiti art and the responsibility that goes along with it.

For him, taggers and those who spray over other people’s art lack basic respect.
