Clogged Caps 7: All City

2011 marks the seventh edition of the Clogged Caps International Aerosol Arts Festival in San Antonio, Texas. This year's event, Clogged Caps 7: All City, kicks off March 10th, culminating three days later with ceiling-to-floor masterpieces at seven designated venues across San Antonio.

Ten years after its inaugural 2001 festival, Clogged Caps has created a worldwide buzz. To date, Clogged Caps has been the subject of a feature-length documentary (Clogged Caps 3), as well as made San Antonio a hip-hop epicenter for one weekend. Each subsequent festival since the first heightens the event's profile, attracting artists from all walks of life from countries around the world.

The San Antonio chapter of the internationally recognized LAWS Crew hosts the event, and has extended invitations to other painting crews from around the world. At this time, confirmed artists hail from all points between and including New York and Los Angeles.
