Graffiti Grant
Updated 06-17-2007 21:16

The city of LaCrosse doesn't see graffiti in a positive light. Artistic expression isn't how the city perceives graffitti. So, the city is applying for a grant from the America the Beautiful: Graffiti Hurts program. Trying to get a two thousand dollar grant for enforcement effort to stop the practice. In some cities they set up a mural for artists to use. Instead of displaying their art form where it isn't wanted. Apparently, LaCrosse sees a lot of unwanted graffiti on trains and on overpasses. Local cops are hoping more enforcement will mean less graffiti .
