Upcoming opportunities and ongoing resources from the Office of Arts and Culture.

Last updated Sept. 19, 2024.

Join us on Tuesday, Sept. 24 from 5:30 - 7:00 p.m. at Junkyard Social Club for our upcoming Professional Artist Forum. Next month's topic will be focused on demystifying the public art process with the city's Public Art Program Manager, Brendan Picker-Mahoney.

Earlier this week, we welcomed new public artwork into our collection. "Unfolding" by Sharon Dowell is fully installed along Broadway Avenue in North Boulder. Her series of colorful installations serves as a gateway into the North Boulder Arts District and reflects the creative evolution of the area.

Applications have been extended for the Creative Neighborhoods Mural Program! If you are interested in bringing colorful artwork to your neighborhood, please consider applying. Applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis by subcommunity. In particular, we are looking for interested community members from the Hill, Palo Park and Gunbarrel areas.

As part of our 2024 Artist Census, we are conducting focus groups with creative professionals that live and work in Boulder. We are looking to learn more about the important role artists play in our local economy and society. If you would like to be considered for a focus group, please fill out an interest form. Focus groups are scheduled for Oct. 15 and 17 during lunch and the early evening - more details will be available shortly.
