The City of Boulder, Colorado commissioned more than 60 artists who recently lost work due to the COVID-19 pandemic to create new works of art in support of their neighbors. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Boulder Office of Arts and Culture launched the Creative Neighborhoods: COVID-19 Work Projects, a program that starting in April delivered funding to artists who have lost gigs, had contracts or events cancelled, been laid off, or have otherwise been put in a vulnerable position due to the necessary restrictions to control the COVID-19 Pandemic, explains the program’s page<\/a>.<\/p>\n With a matching grant from the local arts service nonprofit, Create Boulder<\/a>, the Office of Arts and Culture has distributed funds to more than 60 artists -including musicians, visual artists, poets, filmmakers, dancers, and artists of all kinds- who are currently working on projects throughout Boulder\u2019s neighborhoods.<\/p>\n An interactive map of current Creative Neighborhoods: COVID-19 Work Projects is available on the Office of Arts and Culture website<\/a>. <\/p>\n
