Community Life

Chad Dravk skated through Kensington in the 1980s. Now he's building the scene he never had.

At Zembo Temple of Skate and Design on Frankford Avenue, Dravk is building a Philadelphia skate scene that welcomes everyone.

Chad Dravk stands behind the counter of his skate shop, surrounded by skateboards, art supplies, vintage cameras and clothing.
