Urban arts; public arts.  Not quite the same but close enough for us to feel comfortable putting them in the same gallery. Graffiti?  We have no time for it.  We feel it is just another form of vandalism.

Urban art is a type of craft that is usually found in urban areas. It can be anything from graffiti to murals to street art. Urban art often has a message or story that it is trying to tell.

Public art is a craft that is created in a public space. This can include sculptures, paintings, installations, and other forms of art. Public art can be created by anyone, from professional artists to amateurs.
