Ride inside, stay alive

The MTA, NYC Public Schools, high school students, and BMX athlete Nigel Sylvester have partnered on a campaign about the dangers of subway surfing.
Earlier this year, the MTA set out to update its existing subway surfing campaign. With the help of NYC Public Schools and students at the High School of Art & Design, we developed a new campaign featuring illustrated comics that tell the stories of characters whose lives are affected by subway surfing. We reached out to Nigel Sylvester, BMX athlete and Queens native, to better reach the audience who needs this urgent message.
