Call for Art: Art Along the Blue Trail Post Project

The Silverthorne Art Board seeks artists to install artwork on trail posts along the Blue River Trail. These installations can be created in the medium of the artist's choice and examples of what the Art Board is looking for include, but are not limited to, painting, yarn bombing, mosaics, wheat pasting, moss painting, wood carving, die cuts, etc. The project’s goal is to add vibrancy to Silverthorne’s trail system, encourage people to recreate along the Blue River, and transform utilitarian objects into eye-catching attractions that beautify Silverthorne’s downtown.

Artist applications are due Friday, June 20. Learn more about Art Along the Blue Trail Post Project and apply here
