Recognized worldwide as a style master, Dream’s graffiti established the visual aesthetic of Oakland’s Hip Hop culture, and put The Town  (Oakland) on the map in what is now the fastest growing art movement in human history.

This event marks eleven years since Dream was tragically murdered, and all proceeds from the event will benefit the Dream Book Fund and the Dream Legacy Fund for his son Akil, 11, who recently lost his mother to breast cancer.

If you are unable to attend and wish to support, please make checks out to The Dream Legacy Fund, or Akil Francisco.
