SKATE WORLD at Canora Courts

A drop-in art activity + skateboard photography exhibition celebrating creativity and community

SKATE WORLD at Canora Courts celebrates creativity, inclusion and connection. This interactive one-day event invites community members to come to Canora Courts — a DIY skatepark that was built by community for community — and design their own custom Tech Deck skateboard graphics, sculpt playful skate obstacles out of clay, and explore the art and culture of skateboarding. Everyone is welcome to attend! Tech Decks and art supplies will be provided.

SKATE WORLD also features an outdoor photo exhibition celebrating skateboarders who ride at Canora Courts — showcasing the diverse and welcoming skate community that’s thriving right here in west-central Edmonton, especially the women and LGBTQ+ skateboarders who are creating an even stronger culture for skateboarding.

SKATE WORLD is your chance to explore a vibrant space, meet new people, celebrate with community and experience the joy of creativity together.

There will be complimentary food & refreshments including patties from Jamaican Delight, treats from ch.Cafeteria and Jay & Suzie’s NO FRILLS!
