Opening: SK8 GIRLS

Skateboarding culture symbolizes freedom, creativity, and courage worldwide—values that have defined the Melkweg for decades. At the same time, this culture remains largely male-dominated. For women and queer skaters, this often means less visibility, less space, and a constant struggle to be heard and seen.
