MCP has partnered with the amazing artist, Greg Mike, to organize a group of artists to participate in the weekend-long live action Visual Arts Installation. These artists will cumulatively cover over 1600 sq. feet of space created what could possibly be the craziest mural seen to date!

PLF

Greg is the founder and Creative Director of ABV, Atlanta's contemporary art gallery and creative agency known for its focus on street art and pop surrealism. And get the rest of this lineup, from straight off of CounterPoint's page, "[Greg] will share the spotlight with the likes of Aaron Crawford, Brandon Sadler, LAmour Supreme, PLF, Sam Parker, Skinner, Trey Moseley, Will Mitchell and, the man - the myth - THE Wolfdog." This is an awesome way to get different types of art involved in relative and unique ways, especially at what looks to be the biggest and kickass festival of the summer!
