The "Skate Of The Art" event is not just your typical art show; it's a blind auction with a noble cause. All proceeds from the auction will be dedicated to the much-needed repairs of the Riverside skatepark, a beloved space for skaters in our community. By attending and participating in the auction, you're not only immersing yourself in a world of artistic wonder but also contributing to the enhancement of a local skate haven.

"The upcoming event should celebrate all skate culture, whether it is skateboarding inline skating, or quad/derby skating. We want all within the skating community to feel welcome and represented, just like they are at the skateparks we are funding the restorations for."
