About Us
Who are we?
Welcome to the Boulder Arts Resource Online. The Boulder Arts Resource is a joint project of the City of Boulder Arts Commission and the Boulder Public Library. The Resource serves Colorado's diverse arts community by showcasing and promoting hundreds of individual artists and groups working in all disciplines: visual, performing, film/video, literary, multidisciplinary. The Resource serves as a way to connect artists with the community and provides tools and information to help the arts to thrive in Colorado. On our site, users can find out more about local artists, view or listen to artists’ work, browse listings of arts events and venues and read about opportunities open to artists. All our services are free both to the artists and the public.
