Harold Hunter art by DeGrupo on Houston and the Bowery
The 16th annual Harold Hunter Weekend is underway.
Billed as "one of NYC’s largest and most highly anticipated skateboarding events," the activities — including in Tompkins Square Park — celebrate the legacy of Hunter, a charismatic local skateboarder who was born and raised at Campos Plaza on 13th Street. He died in 2006 at age 31.
The weekend is hosted by the Harold Hunter Foundation, a nonprofit that provides support, opportunity and advocacy for skateboarders.
