From The Clone Wars Head Writer, Henry Gilroy:

"I'm involved in a non profit that helps a small school district with no money for their art programs. The economy is killing art programs everywhere. My sister in law teaches art at the high school and they get like 1000$ for supplies for the whole year. That's spread among 250 students, so it ends up being $5 a student. All that buys is a little paper -- not even enough for markers or paint.

Anyway, they're having an art festival to raise money to support the art programs so the kids will be able to have markers and paints and such. I called in some favors and got the Clone Wars crew to participate and contribute some artwork for it.

The project was a skateboard deck. Dave Filoni did one, Kilian Plunkett did one as did the entire Clone Wars series design team, Kilian, Russel Chong, Wayne Lo, David Le Merrer, Pat Presley, and Randy Bantog. There is art of Clones, Jedi, Sith, etc... They're pretty awesome!

They are awesomely cool and... They will be put up for auction on ebay later in the week."
