You could find Dallas' boarders in South Lamar this weekend for the 3rd Annual Art of Skateboarding, featuring 180 art works on skateboards, Vans shoes, and DJ Joe Vega's spin work. This years honorary chairs were artist JD Miller & Pro Skater Jon Comer. Pretty awesome? The event benefited Scottish Rite Hospital for Children as well. Photos by Kevin Todora
