TPT VID – CITY OF SKATE CO-FOUNDER, SKATEBOARDER AND COMMUNITY-BASED ARTIST WITT SIASOCO BELIEVES ‘ART (and SKATEBOARDING) CAN DO MORE’ – His work and the Juxtaposition Skate-able Art Plaza
“By far the most ambitious project I that I have been a part of is the construction of the 4,000-square-foot Skateable Art Plaza at Juxtaposition Arts (JXTA). Within the span of two years, I helped bring together City of Skate, a skateboard non-profit that I co-founded and JXTA to design, build and program the multi-use space. The teams’s user-focused design approach was centered on working with the 10 youth from JXTA’s Environmental Design Team. As of today, the plaza is a living, vibrant space that hosts an average of over 100 youth on a weekly basis.”
