2010 Skate Deck Art Show Recap

$3,400 RAISED FOR PUBLIC SKATEPARKS

In our most successful fundraiser to date, more than $3,400 was raised to support public skateparks at our 2010 Skate Deck Art Show on May 12, 2010.

The silent auction featured a total of 74 pieces of deck art from a wide range of artists including tattoo gurus, motorcycle builders, school teachers and elementary school students. Thanks to all of our artists and volunteers who donated their time and creative energy - without you it doesn't happen! See Event Photos
