Tonight! Bordo Bello skateboard art auction
If you haven't heard of the Bordo Bello, then you're missing out on one of Denver's most exciting annual art events for a cause. Hosted by the design organization AIGA, this event invites dozens of Colorado's prominent illustrative artists and designers to transform a blank skate deck by drawing, painting, etching, carving, and often completely changing the board itself. (Last year one designer turned his skate deck into a functioning tape deck.) Tonight the boards will be auctioned off at Artwork Network and all of the proceeds will benefit AIGA's mentorship program, Youth Design Denver, and annual scholarship, Access Gallery, which offers exhibition opportunities and studio space to disabled artists. Bidding opens at 6PM and entree is $20.
