As a thirteen-year-old skate punk, I didn't care about anything but my deck and how cool it looked. Comprising everything from surrealism to pop art, abstract to tribalistic primitivism, it shaped my taste in art. Tonight, Plastic Chapel and Indy Ink take skate art to the max with the Skate Deck Show, which features more than 140 Thrifty Stick boards adorned by local artists. The results go on display starting at 7 p.m. at Indy Ink, 84 South Broadway, and with artists like Jason Brunson, Scribe and Scot LeFavor participating, there should be some incredible results. "It doesn't even have to be skateable," says organizer Dea Webb. "People are cutting them; people are building stuff on them. I hope they go all out."

All of the decks will be for sale, with 10 percent of the proceeds benefiting the Chatfield High School art program. Call 303-722-0715 or visit www.plasticchapel.com for more info.
