Skate of Mind is a grassroots, national touring collective of skaters, filmmakers, photographers, and artists. We run community engagement events, workshops, music, art, digital art, projection, and soundscape design in regional communities.
Partnering with renowned skate culture brands Totem and Build-Up, the Skate of Mind team will connect with regional young people through skateboarding, art and music. Promoting skateparks as safe places for connection and expression for the whole community.
Exciting changes are coming in 2026 as Skate of Mind invests in our important industry partnerships across regional Australia.
“Thanks to foundational support from Totem Skateboarding, Skate of Mind has been able to pull together an amazing collective of skateboarders to travel to metropolitan, regional and remote communities nationally and internationally to connect with young people and build community through skateboarding, art and music.”
