“Take life’s trials and turn them into tricks.” –Anonymous

Continuing an annual tradition, Urban Arts Gallery presents “The 9th Annual Skate Deck Challenge”, a vibrant and diverse collection of artwork made with blank skate decks. Local artists are invited to submit artwork—the only rule is that it must be made with a blank skate deck! The result is a colorful and delightful glimpse into the endless creativity of Salt Lake City.

On the night of the Salt Lake Gallery Stroll (September 20th) from 6-9pm, the public will be invited to vote on their favorite decks, with the five winners receiving prizes, accolades, and serious bragging rights!

This show will hang September 3rd through September 29th, with a gallery stroll reception on September 20th from 6-9pm. Admission is free and open to the public.
