Event Description

Art Skate Gallery List:

Art%20Skate%20Gallery%20Options.pdf

Look at art...skate...look at art...skate...look at art...skate...look at art...drink beer...

Starting in Woollharra each attendee will be given a map with multiple galleries to choose from. Over a glass of red wine (or soft drink) serious decisions will be made about what art we'd like to see, and the skate route to take.

Then we'll skate from gallery to gallery, through the back streets of Paddington and Darlinghurst, and down to the AGNSW. From there we'll cruise through the Botanic Gardens and into the Opera Bar for light refreshments. We may then tumble into the MCA and then on to the streets/pubs of the Rocks.

From Woollharra to Circular Quay it's all hills, so bring your longboard, your slide gloves and your kultcha goggles.

Meet at the corner of Jersey Rd and Oxford St in Woollharra at 1pm.

ASRA Admin Comment by Bugs on September 24, 2011 at 21:37: Slightly damp, but still good day.

Best visuals the rocknroll photography, especially Keith Richards in front of the drug-free America sign.

Best skating was the footpath alongside Victoria Barracks, and the steep slipnslide on Riley St.

Next time in the sun...
