Colt 21

I am “Colt21”, a student, self-taught artist and a part-time graffiti workshop instructor living in Turku, Finland. Currently I'm studying at HUMAK University of Applied Sciences (started in Sept. 2024) to become a Community Educator (Bachelor of Humanities). I'm also, as part of the executive committee, actively involved in the operation of Freshcode ry – an association supporting urban culture.

My interests range from large scale of arts – for example graffiti and photography – to hiking, and nature generally. (You can click the button above to visit my website where you can find out more about me and my art.)

Since 2021 I've been teaching graffiti and street art to the youth, cooperating with different types of projects/organizations, associations and cities:

• 2021, a graffiti workshop for secondary school youth – in cooperation with the city of Turku
• 2024, a series of graffiti/street art workshops for the youth – in cooperation with Nuorisotyöllä turvallisempi Turku -hanke
• 2024, a graffiti pop-up workshop, as part of "Turvaa turuilla ja toreilla” -event – organized in cooperation with Nuorisotyöllä turvallisempi Turku -hanke
• 2024, an inclusive community art project “BMX Kidz Rule” (including a series of graffiti workshops) for the youth – in cooperation with Freshcode ry and Kulttuurin kärkihanke (Cultural Spearhead Project of the city of Turku)
• 2024, a one-time graffiti workshop for the youth – in cooperation with the city of Lieto
• 2024, a one-time workshop and a graffiti contest for elementary school children – organized in cooperation with the city of Raisio
