Across the Board – Autism Awareness


Take a skateboard, an artist, and bring them together for a good cause and what you get is Across the Board – Artist for Autism Awareness.

What do you get when you take raw skateboards and put them in the hands of some of the most talented urban artists to do as they please? A beautiful MashUp of two urban cultures coming together for a good cause. I’m just amazed at the work that came about from this collab.

Props to Laurie Markiewicz and Peter Pabón for organizing this event. We need more collab’s like this to inspire and educate. Some of the artists who participated were, Miguel Paredes, Mare 139, BlusterOne, TooFly, Alice Mizrachi, Gigi Bio, MERES, Marthalicia, Lichiban, Ski, 2ESAE, and Damion Silver, among others. A portion of the proceeds from the sales of the skateboards went to Autism Speaks.
