In 1957, The Pig Stand #10 on Port Arthur Road at Highland Ave
was a popular destination for teens after high school games. This
painting depicts a gathering of students from rival schools,
South Park and Beaumont High, at the Pig Stand. The artist has
included several classic cars from the 1950s and 60s in the
scene, including a '57 Chevy Bel-Air Convertible and a '55 Ford
Crown Victory. The Pig Stand, built in 1924, holds a special
place in the artist's memories as it was a popular hangout spot
for several generations of teens. The painting is part of a
series that aims to capture nostalgic moments from the 1950s and
60s, featuring the artist's friends and relatives as models.
