The Dubuque Area Arts Collective and Mind Flip Productions present the 4th Annual Dark Slide Skate Art Show. Regional, national, and international artists will present their artistic creations, rendered on skateboard decks. Functioning as a canvas for street art for decades, the Skate Art Show highlights the art of the skateboard deck and skateboarding culture. Proceeds will fund Dubuque's new skate park, the DAAC's arts programming and contributing artists.
