Greening a National Historic Landmark By Andrea McGimsey Boulder, Colorado is a charming historic city at the foot of the Rocky Mountains near Denver, with a population of 100,000 residents. Founded in 1871 it served as a supply center for the burgeoning mountain mining communities of the 19th century. Its forward thinking leaders fought to land the University of Colorado in 1876, which placed it on the map as one of the most influential and innovative communities in the American West. In 1898, Boulder won out over other Colorado cities to found the Texas-Colorado Chautauqua. Chautauqua Auditorium and Boulder’s iconic Flatirons. Photo courtesy of Colorado Chautauqua Association.

The Flatirons were formed when the Permian/Pennsylvanian-aged sedimentary rocks of the Fountain Formation were tilted upward as the older rocks to the west rose during the Laramide Orogeny about 70 million years ago. Subsequent erosion has reduced those tilted slabs of the Fountain Formation to large, triangular slabs of rock that seem to lean up against the older rocks to the west of them.

  • All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION and KEY
    All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION AND KEY This report is a list of all grants awarded by the Colorado Historical Society’s State Historical Fund (SHF) since its inception in 1992 (state Fiscal Year 1993) through the end of Fiscal Year 2020. The amounts listed are the original award amounts. If for some reason the entire grant amount was not used (i.e. a project was terminated or was completed under budget) the full amount awarded will appear. In other instances grant awards were increased either to enable project completion or to cover the costs of easements. In these instances, the additional award amount is shown in a separate entry as an increase. In those cases where no work was accomplished and the funds were either declined by the grant recipient or were required to be returned to the SHF through rescissions, no entry will appear. For this reason, projects listed in one version of this report may not appear in later versions, and the financial information shown in this report may not be comparable to other revenue reports issued by the SHF. Grants listed in this report are identified by project ID number. The first two characters in the project ID number represent the fiscal year from which the grant was scheduled to be paid. The state is on a July 1 – June 30 fiscal year. So, for example, all grants made between July 1, 2006 and June 30, 2007 will be coded “07”. The next two characters identify the type of grant. In the case of grants that are awarded based on specific application due dates, the grant round in which the project was funded will be paired with either a letter or number.

  • Winterfest 2020 - DECEMBER 11, 2020 – May 1, 2021 – the Colorado Chautauqua Presents Free, Live and Virtual Holiday Festivities in Boulder’S Most Magical Setting
    WinterFest 2020 - DECEMBER 11, 2020 – May 1, 2021 – The Colorado Chautauqua presents free, live and virtual holiday festivities in Boulder’s most magical setting For release: Tuesday - November 17, 2020 The Colorado Chautauqua is pleased to offer free and socially distanced activities for the holidays and beyond. At the scenic Chautauqua Boulder campus, you can tour a charming Art-in-the-Park installation of bear cub sculptures decorated by Colorado artists with an optional accompanying digital scavenger hunt. Each cub will be illuminated and placed in a winter scene, creating great photo opportunities. Or for those who prefer to stay home, take a virtual tour of the elegant and sustainably restored Mary H. Galey cottage all decked out for the holidays. The new video from Chautauqua@Home, “A Mary Galey Holiday” can be streamed on Chautauqua.com and includes local music, cameos from well-known Boulder figures, and culinary inspiration from the Chautauqua Dining Hall. The WinterFest 2020 Art-in-the-Park installation features fifteen bear cub sculptures customized by local artists and chosen from a pool of 136 applicants. Every artist has been matched with a Colorado nonprofit, and many of the cubs have also been supported by local sponsors. On May 1, there will be an auction of the cubs, benefitting Chautauqua, the artists, and Colorado nonprofits. A giant fiberglass black bear, which is also part of the installation, will remain on- site and is destined to become a favorite new Boulder landmark. “We are thrilled to be hosting a public art project that promotes the talents of Colorado creatives, and showcases local nonprofits and the philanthropy of local donors and businesses,” says Debbie Stewart, Director of Development.
