With nearly 300 artists and over 400 skate decks, this exhibit is set to be nothing short of mind-blowing.

A Cultural Powerhouse
The Bay Area has long been a breeding ground for creativity, rebellion, and artistic innovation—especially within the skateboarding world. SKATE is more than just an exhibition; it’s a tribute to the rich history of skateboarding in San Francisco and beyond. 111 Minna, a legendary space for artists and creatives, is the perfect venue for this monumental event. This show doesn’t just showcase art—it celebrates a movement, a lifestyle, and a community that has shaped the creative world in ways both seen and unseen.
⸻
An Unparalleled Roster of Artists
The exhibition features an incredible lineup, primarily composed of Bay Area artists, alongside select LA-based artists who launched their careers in San Francisco and maintain deep ties to the city. Additionally, Irene has curated works from international artists who have either lived in the Bay or share a profound connection to its creative scene. These artists, ranging from established legends to rising stars, bring their own unique voices and styles—making SKATE a dynamic and thrilling experience.
⸻
A Fusion of Art & Skateboarding
Expect over 400 skate decks, each transformed into stunning, thought-provoking works of art. Many decks will be painted, while others will take on sculptural forms—challenging traditional concepts of what a skateboard can be. Artists have been encouraged to push boundaries, think outside the box, and create pieces that are as unexpected as they are beautiful. This show is a testament to the limitless creativity that skate culture inspires.
⸻
More Than an Exhibition—A Movement
Irene’s commitment to artists goes far beyond curating events. She has been a fierce advocate for artist rights, exposure, collaboration, and financial independence—ensuring that creatives have the opportunities they deserve. SKATE embodies this mission: it’s about how art can change lives, how it inspires, and how it brings people together.
⸻
A Tribute to the Bay Area’s Skate Legacy
What makes this show truly special is its deep-rooted connection to San Francisco’s legendary skate scene. The city has long been a global epicenter for skateboarding, with its hills, streets, and iconic spots serving as both playground and canvas. SKATE is an homage to that culture and the tight-knit community that surrounds it. Some of the featured artists are now world-renowned figures in the art world. Others are just beginning their journey—and creating a platform for emerging talent is one of the most important aspects of this exhibition.
⸻
Art That Unites & Inspires
Art has the power to bring people together, to empower, and to inspire. SKATE is about making art accessible to all—celebrating the creativity, energy, and resilience of a culture that has influenced so many lives. Whether you’re a skater, an art lover, or someone who simply appreciates bold creativity, this show is a must-see.

“We’re bringing the Bay Area and SF together for a high-energy celebration of art, music, and community—rooted in skate culture and the creative pulse of the city.
Expect spectacular live art, next-level music, and incredible food, plus surprises that’ll keep you hyped all night.
Over 400 skateboards transformed into stunning works of art—painted, sculpted, and reimagined into something truly beautiful. These one-of-a-kind pieces will be available for purchase, giving you the chance to own a part of this electrifying event while directly supporting the artists.
