Last year the gallery space was absolutely crammed for this exhibit. I easily expect it to be similarly packed on October 9th when the Brantford Arts Block hosts its sophomore showing.
I'm pretty sure that the skateboards are going to be put up for silent auction. Last year the designs were really awesome, and I know that at least mine is going to be similarly awesome this year!
