The first wave of art installation for the Gateway Public Art Project begins later this week. Five Colorado muralists will be painting over the course of the next two weeks on site at the new Central Self Storage on Highway 133. Later this year, sculptures will be installed by three Roaring Fork Valley artists. View artist bios here. Carbondale Arts has been mindful in the selection and execution of this project as the community is experiencing development fatigue.
“This project sets a great precedent for how we can be proactive about capturing community benefits alongside the growth in our community. It shows that we can create and implement innovative systems and processes for ongoing and sustained funding to support the role and place of artists in Carbondale.”
