Out Side Art starts finishing Bansky

Or, Bansky Gets an Extreme Makeover this week in the Mission

this has been reported recently on Uptown Almanac, and also here but today it’s really getting started

the Bansky piece at Erie and Mission just off Division is getting a major work over this week, and it started yesterday with a block party at 161 Erie

Public Works, Pink Mammoth and The Fringe Collective will host a benefit for ROOT DIVISION and The SAN FRANCISCO PARKS TRUST.
OUT SIDE ART: a new community-building endeavor that combines San Francisco’s art, music and green cultures.
An outdoor event for the whole family, Out Side Art is bringing together a talented group of artists and DJs to represent some of San Franciscos most creative scenes.
The primary artistic focus of this event will be a coordinated effort by local artists to complete a Mural started by the internationally renowned British artist BANKSY.

The orginal Bansky art was this

Banksy Bird Singing in Tree - Mission, San Francisco SF - April 24, 2010  - Warholian.com

On April 27, 2010. just days after the original Bansky work appeared, the first tags appeared and it looked like this. It has since been erased as has numerous others
