‘SKATEABLE’ ART INSTALLATION OPENS IN CINCINNATI

People’s Liberty Globe Gallery, in Cincinnati, Ohio, is the site of a just-opened art installation/pop up skatepark. Designed by Ali Calis, "SkateAble vs Non" marks a departure from all the attention that skateboarding has been receiving due to the 2020 Olympic games announcement by steering the conversation toward creativity.

This project was made possible by a grant from People’s Liberty, a philanthropic organization based in Cincinnati. The above video (produced by WCPO Cincinatti) is inspiration for all you passionate skaters who would like to take your creative expression just a little further.
