Creation, Community, Culture: 2Buck Invitational 2025
2BUCK INVITATIONAL 2025: RECAP
History + local submissions from over 180 writers participating in the 2025 2Buck invitational event in Louisville, KY.
In 2012, a group of Louisville artists came together to celebrate local talent, paint murals, host shows, and support graffiti culture. From that shared vision, the All-City Art Event was born.
In 2015, the group lost their friend Jon “2BUCK” Brown, whose impact was felt by all who knew him. To honor his legacy, the event was renamed the 2BUCK Invitational.
RIP 2BUK
Each year, they continue to grow—finding new spaces, painting new walls, and bringing people together.
The mission remains the same: to celebrate graffiti’s rich history while pushing its future forward in Louisville and beyond.
Here’s what the local news outlet WHAS 11 had to say about the event:
Here is a gallery of some of the works created at this years event featuring crews such as TCI, LORDS, NLM, IMOK and more.
While more than 180 artists participated in the event, these are only a fraction of the works created. Look out for more in our next zine and on our socials.
Here at 4hundredml- We believe that intentions and events like this are what our community needs today.
Creation, Community and Connection.
These values are what will give us the foundation for a stronger community and ensure our longevity through this new age. It’s going to take all of us coming together offline to ascend the algorithms.
