Cleveland-based photographer Ricky Rhodes first visited the deserted Queen Avenue DIY skatepark at a friend’s invitation on a bitter January afternoon in 2013. In the summer of the following year, he returned to discover a flourishing community of skaters, street artists, and children who had made their home within the park. Day in and day out, he frequented the park, gradually gaining the trust of its regular crew, who devotedly spent their summers building new ramps, creating elaborate graffiti art, and holding the occasional birthday party. Queen Ave Dead End investigates the park, its evolution, and its many characters.
