With Guest Speaker John Makens

Art and Life tells the story of legendary artist Jim Phillips, whose iconic designs helped shape the visual language of surf, skate, and counterculture movements for over five decades. From his early days in Santa Cruz to global recognition, Jim’s bold, energetic style became synonymous with a generation of rebellion and creativity. Through interviews, archival footage, and original artwork, the film paints a raw and honest portrait of a man whose passion for art never faded.
