The "History of Graffiti" at the State, really?

So author and photographer Jim Prigoff is giving a lecture and slide show on "The History of Graffiti" tomorrow night at the State Theatre here in Modesto.  My thought is, wrong city at the wrong time.  We know that graffiti is an "art" and I am not one to hold back on the "arts", but in Modesto, graffiti is known as "tagging" first, art maybe.  Mr. Prigoff is no dummy.  He knows where is markets are.

He is supposed to convert these taggers into "artists"? Not sure of that is the idea or not.
