Graffiti at The Mullet

Various paintings in the wall representing something diff.
          For our seventh trip for HOGS, we took a trip to "The Mullet", a graffiti place right around Almeda Mall. It was a very interesting place with a lot of wall painted, each with different types of paintings with different significance. They were all done by professionals, for the paintings were very well done and detailed. They were really nice paintings to look at and meditate about them along with what the significance of some of them could mean. The son of the owner of this place was born with the developmental disorder of Autism, which appears in the first three years of life and affects the brain's normal development of social and communication skills. The Father rents the place for concerts and other things to raise money, and donates what he raises to Autism Research Groups to help those people with autism. Most people would take the money and use it in personal things for themselves, but the owner of this place has a different heart with a different intention. Some of the Graffiti seemed to have like a dark meaning while others seemed to represent happiness and humor. It was a nice experince going and observing some amazing paintings.
