Painted Legacy, an art exhibit by Spawk, will open at GateWay Community College’s Washington Campus on February 28, 2025. Spawk, who attended GateWay Early College High School from 1999 to 2000, is showcasing his work in an event titled “Painted Legacy: The Evolution of My Style.”

Spawk describes his style as a blend of 1920s advertising and graffiti. His creations include murals, window designs, lettering, vehicle painting, and a clothing line launched in 2019. His work can be seen throughout Phoenix but often goes unsigned.

The exhibit will feature some of Spawk’s pinstriping work on cars, introduced to him by mentor Eddie “ET” Torres in 2012. Spawk said, “Some of the coolest cars from all over the Valley will be on display outside for the car show.” The event will also include live painting sessions, food from Estero Beach Tacos, and music by DJ Lee and Friends. Attendees can try pinstriping with professionals.

The public is invited to this free event from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., with RSVP requested via Eventbrite.

GateWay Community College is located at 108 N. 40th Street, Phoenix, AZ.
