Call for Volunteers!
Graffiti “Brush Off”
& Litter Clean Up
DENVER —
Pick-up a paint brush and give graffiti the “brush off” along stretches of
Federal Boulevard! Denver Public Works is looking for more volunteers for the
Annual Graffiti “Brush Off” and Litter Clean Up on Saturday, July 23.
Each
year, Denver Public Works Graffiti Abatement crews respond to thousands of
incidents around the city. Graffiti vandalism sends a negative message about
a community. That’s why each summer, Denver Public Works counts on volunteers
to team up for a few hours to join forces to help tackle graffiti, remove
litter, and keep Denver beautiful!
Supplies,
thank you gifts and lunch will be provided. Those who are interested in
taking part in this event can register to volunteer online or visit denvergov.org/graffiti for more information.
Denver
Public Works also encourages residents to report graffiti vandalism in Denver
by calling 311 and on Pocketgov, the City’s mobile web application.
After creating a simple user profile, residents can take a picture of the
graffiti with their phone, tag the location, and send the report.
