Call for Skateboard Artists for June 2025

The June 2025 Group Show will explore traditional, non-traditional, and contemporary interpretations of the rainbow, to be created on a blank skate deck. Artists are welcome to repurpose their own decks or include previous painted skate decks that match the theme. The Kinder Padon Gallery is searching for artists working in all media forms, with an emphasis on the use of color.

Eligibility is limited to Colorado residents. Submissions must include an artist CV, artist statement (50-100 words maximum), and artist proposal for how they would use the gallery. Works must be complete. Entries are submitted online through CaFE.
