The Art of Steven Lopez

In Oregon…

There is so much going on. I’ve been talking to a few people about a project that I’m really excited about. Once everything is order and the ink is dry I will tell you what’s going down. I’m surviving on 5 hours of sleep the 2 days as I was putting everything in order to make the trip here to Oregon. My solo show will begin next week on the 5th. Tomorrow I will be heading up to downtown Portland for the Apple Juice Crew Jam:

I’ll be painting there along with my Portland-based friend Ashley Montague. He does, as you say, “putting in work”. 

The Juice Jam is a FREE all day, all ages annual hip hop event that the APPLE JUICE CREW organizes.
It features lots of DJs, MCs, a live graffiti wall and open b/boy & b/girl cyphers among other original hip hop culture elements.
We throw it in the heart of downtown Portland at a concrete park called O’Bryant Square.
Our goal is to present a positive outdoor hip hop jam that’s completely free to the public.
Last year, we had hundreds of people come out to support and this year we’re doing it even bigger.
We’re doing this event also as a benefit to raise awareness for and support
the Hip Hop Elements program of the Rock n’ Roll Camp for Girls.
This is a program to educate girls ages 8-18 on the elements of hip hop: Emceeing, DJing, B/Girling, and Graffiti Art.
Because the event is non-profit, the Apple Juice Crew is only able to fund this event through the support we get from our sponsors and the money we generate from fundraisers that you support.n ore
