StreetWorks - The Graffiti of Jimbo's

Across the Rickenbacker Causeway from our gutter metropolis, between the City of Miami and the Village of Key Biscayne, lies Virginia Key. It's home to the legendary Jimbo's, a one of a kind smoked fish and beer shack replete with bocce ball, feral cocks and spray can art...

Across the Rickenbacker Causeway from our gutter metropolis, between the City of Miami and the Village of Key Biscayne, lies Virginia Key. It's home to the legendary Jimbo's, a one of a kind smoked fish and beer shack replete with bocce ball, feral cocks and spray can art.

Art and nature combine to great effect in the urban wilderness that is Jimbo's.

Labor Day saw certified writers and painters out in the mangroves doing their thing.

Here goes AOK Serch rocking a trailer; dude is a groveside veteran. Holler at him for legal productions; he's in business.

This Miami, not the Bronx; we don't bomb trains, we paint boats.
