Artspaper – Artspace Skates Its Way Into Open Source Festival

“The modular skate park, which first appeared at the Kennedy Center in 2015, is the brainchild of designer Ben Ashworth, himself a skateboarder and member of the D.C-based Workingman Collective. Earlier this month, it made the journey from Washington, D.C. to New Haven, where it was reassembled before last weekend’s raucous christening. It is a collaboration among Scantlebury Skate Park leaders Roberts and J. Joseph, the Kennedy Center’s Finding A Line initiative, and the City of New Haven. Roberts said that it will be there for a full year, waiting for skaters to make it their own.”
