OSF x AGO

During our programming year 2012-2013 the Art Gallery of Ontario & Oasis Skateboard Factory (OSF) collaborated on a series of free skateboard building workshops led by and for youth. OSF leadership students developed leadership and teaching skills through teaching participants how to build their own skateboards from scratch, and how to deck it out with their original designs! OSF x AGO workshops run through the AGO's Free After Three workshops every Wednesday from 4-6pm until June 5, 2013.
