Street Art on Rogers

Whitepeople Last week, there was a storefront on Rogers that never seemed to be open but its wares are clearly selling like hotcakes.

The White People store, located on Rogers between President and Union, was part of the Sign Project by Specter, a Banksy-like street artist.

Consider me a fan of his even if he thinks I am part of the problem.

Thanks for posting this. The artist's website featuring his many projects is a treat unto itself! Definitely worth a complete review. Is that sign still up on Rogers Avenue? I have also become a Spector fan. Great work!

We have been driving up Rogers every morning for 5 years, and were surprised to see that sign a week or so ago. We chuckled and wondered why we hadn't noticed it before. Then it was gone. My husband said, "I bet it was art," then Googled it and confirmed that thought. We all had a lot of laughs looking at other Specter projects.
