A world-famous graffiti artist has left his mark on a college in Lancashire.

Aroe, a member of LA’s prestigious MSK graffiti crew and Europe’s finest HA (Heavy Artillery) Crew, has used Accrington & Rossendale College as his latest canvas to inspire “passion” in students.

Hundreds of staff, students and members of the public visited to watch Aroe at work as he created a masterpiece over two days.

“We believe in being innovative in order to create a passion in our students” said director of Business at the college Tamsin Deasey.

“What better way to do that than give them a once in a lifetime experience like this? Aroe also answered students’ questions and therefore it is a real life workshop that they can enjoy for years to come.”

The large scale artwork needed scaffolding erected to complete.

Aroe’s work is shown across the globe from New York to Milan and Dubai to Hollywood. He has worked with clients ranging from Disney to Playstation and was recently featured in Rolling Stone magazine.
