The Golden Era of East Coast Snowboarding

Past event
Oct 20, 2022, 7 to 8:30 PM

Photographer Gary Land's joining Vermont Ski & Snowboard Museum on the Virtual Red Bench Thursday 10/20 at 7:00 pm via Zoom. Gary will share his latest work, East Street Archives, a photographic journey and a personal love letter to snowboarding. In the Spring of 2020 Land began sifting through his archived 35mm slides of 90's snowboarding images. This resulted in a 437-page book dedicated to the riders of snowboarding's golden era.

He became deeply immersed in Vermont's snowboard scene, and beyond. With a simple 35mm camera he rode and photographed his new friends all over Vermont and beyond. We'll hear about his career trajectory photographing the likes of Allen Iverson, Venus Williams, Peyton Manning, 50 Cent, Jay-Z, Daddy Yankee, and hundreds more, and why he named his new book East Street Archives.

Joining Land on the Red Bench is long-time friend Chris Copley, who will moderate the discussion. Copley, a Burton veteran traveled the world as the Pro Team Manager. As the announcer at the US Open at Stratton, he witnessed, commented on, and heckled the best riders in the world for 12 years.
