$500+ Scavenger Hunt Prize!


Bet you wish you would have played the game!

Snyder hosted a fun and unusual scavenger hunt last week where he asked for contestants to snap photos of five new pieces he had put up on or around Melrose. First one to do so would was promised 'an original piece of art'. Bet everyone wishes they would have tried harder now!

We thought that the contest would be over within hours, but it was made more difficult when one of the pieces was buffed. So it ended up taking over a day before the eventual winner, M&F contributor and street art photographer B. Land, was able to track down the remnants of the buffed piece, and the four remaining spots.

And this prize is absolutely amazing. Snyder hooked B. Land up with a rocket boy stencil featuring his unique drip aesthetic in the background. The piece is absolutely stunning, and, to put a price tag on the prize, this is valued at well over $500+.

We have given away a lot of cool things on the blog, but this has got to be the biggest prize yet. Very cool thing. Thanks to Snyder for sponsoring the contest, and big congrats to B. Land for winning!
