Welcome
Welcome to the first event in Europe exclusively dedicated to the style Punking. This event will celebrate and honor the history and roots of this art form and its evolution into Wh/acking. We will also offer discussions, workshops, performances, and competition to showcase this art form in all of its fullness.
For those who are not familiar with this style and the special international and local artists that will be joining us this year, here is a glimpse.
