Our key events each year are Rock N Rollers & Wheels of Fortune, and flagship programs include Summer Camps, Ladies* Nights, 12&Under Lessons, School-based Enrichment and Youth Employment Skateboarding.
To create an inclusive community by promoting confidence, leadership, and social justice through the sport of skateboarding.

Each year, Skate Like a Girl hosts Wheels of Fortune, the largest and longest running skateboarding gathering for non-traditional skaters! This epic weekend brings together folx from all over the world to skate and build community, including the likes of Vanessa Torres, Lacey Baker, and Sammaria Brevard.
2017 marks Skate Like a Girl’s 4th annual benefit show, Rock N Rollers. In the past, performers such as Kimya Dawson, Mommy Long Legs, and Tacocat have graced the Vera Project stage to support our work. A highly anticipated event, Rock N Rollers brings out 400+ concertgoers with a goal of keeping our wheels turning all year long.
