Growing Up Boulder's
Civic Area Phase 2 Project
| |
Join us for a student art exhibit! | |
Growing Up Boulder worked with 12 National Arts Honor Society Boulder High School students throughout the 23-24 school year to learn about their vision for Phase 2 of the Civic Area redevelopment in downtown Boulder. The students’ art work will be displayed at the Boulder Public library starting in June, and below is an invitation to the opening of their exhibit. Students shared their ideas in-person with the City in April, and City staff were pleased and inspired by the students’ work.

“Feeling safe is one of my top priorities anywhere. I think a place needs to be/feel safe before any of these other (seven) principles can properly and effectively be implemented.”
