Urban Art by Hariko
Those who glance to the right will spot a colorful graffiti with the inscription "Hariko". Young people up to 26 years old should take a closer look at the courtyard, as workshops are offered almost every afternoon, including a graffiti workshop. The wall in the courtyard is constantly changing. It's the perfect place to hang out and unleash your creativity.
Hariko is a mix between "HARIBO" ("Kids and grown-ups love it so, the happy world of Haribo") and "Boun" (from Bouneweg / Bonnevoie), the vegetable (bean). The name reflects the playful character of the project that was inspired by Bronx regeneration project “The Gramsci Monument”. Hariko was founded in 2015 at a former warehouse in Bonnevoie in Luxembourg city, as an outreach service to offer cultural activities and “help young people open up”. Hariko opened in 2019 in Ettelbruck and provides rent-free space to 6 artists in exchange for which tenants offer free workshops to young people. HARIKO is now part of the Youth Program of the Luxembourg Red Cross.
