About this Event

📅 Date: Friday, November 14th
🕔 Arrival: 5:45 PM | 🗣 Seminar Starts: 6:00 PM (approx 45 minutes seminar)
🍷 Complimentary wine, prosecco & beer throughout the evening

Step into the vibrant and unpredictable world where rebellion meets creativity! This exclusive seminar explores the rise of Street Art - from the spray-painted walls of city streets to the glittering stages of the international art market.

Discover the fascinating stories behind two of the movement’s most iconic figures:

🖌️ Banksy — the mysterious, masked master of social commentary whose provocative stencils have appeared on walls around the world. His works challenge authority, question society, and sell for millions, all while his true identity remains one of art’s greatest secrets.

🎨 Mr. Brainwash (Thierry Guetta) — the exuberant, larger-than-life artist who burst onto the scene after starring in Banksy’s Oscar-nominated documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop. His art is bold, colorful, and unapologetically optimistic - celebrating love, positivity, and pop culture in equal measure.

From back alleys to auction houses, these artists have redefined what modern art can be, transforming rebellion into high culture.

With Mr. Brainwash set to arrive in Glasgow on December 3rd, this is your chance to discover the man behind the headlines before you meet him in person.

Expect an evening full of inspiration, insight, and a touch of artistic chaos — all accompanied by a glass (or two) of something special.


Enjoy great art, great company, and great conversation as we dive into one of the most exciting art movements of our time. Spaces are limited - and this promises to be one of the most talked-about evenings of the season!
