The public is invited to Guelph Civic Museum’s opening of kNOw Skateboarding: 60 Years of Skateboarding Culture, a unique exhibit that uncovers the underground world of skateboarding, open now from 7pm to 9 pm.
“News of the upcoming exhibit is already creating a buzz among skateboarding aficionados far and wide,” said Bev Dietrich, manager of Guelph Museums.
“This is a truly unique exhibit and we fully expect that it will draw many new visitors to the museum.”
Featuring an array of artifacts and articles documenting skateboarding’s origins, innovations and icons, kNOw Skateboarding will take visitors on a decade-by-decade ride through skateboarding’s history.
With more than 60 years of history behind it, skateboarding has developed from a do-it-yourself invention to a multi-million dollar industry.
kNOw Skateboarding: 60 Years of Skateboarding and Skateboard Culture runs at the Guelph Civic Museum (52 Norfolk St.) until June 2.
