Project Backboard’s foundation is based on (1) a love for outdoor basketball, (2) a deep appreciation for the power of artists to transform space, and (3) a strong belief in the importance of community.
Project Backboard is a 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to renovate public basketball courts and install large scale works of site-specific art on the surface in order to strengthen communities, improve park safety, encourage multi-generational play, and inspire people to think more critically and creatively about their environment.
Since launching in 2015, Project Backboard has renovated over 100 courts in more than twenty-five States, and internationally in Puerto Rico, Canada, Mexico, Japan and Portugal. In that time, Project Backboard has facilitated over $4 Million dollars of investment in public parks.
Artists Project Backboard has collaborated with include; Nina Chanel Abney, Edgar Heap of Birds, Faith Ringgold, Carlos Rolón, Tschabalala Self, Joana Vasconcelos, Nari Ward, and Andy Warhol.
