The Wellspring Project
The Fruita Arts and Culture Board has been awarded a total of $23,000 by Arts in Society and Western Colorado Community Foundation/Evelyn and Glen Haley Fund for the Arts for their Wellspring Project to be held June 12-18, 2021.
The Wellspring Project is a 7 day summer intensive for Fruita Middle School students that will address the complexity of water use in the west. Through field experiences and interactions with stakeholders interested in how the Colorado River is allocated and protected, participants will engage in a myriad of opportunities and learn more about this valuable resource.
A mural will be created by local artist Pavia Justinian and the students at the conclusion of the camp. This permanent exhibit will depict the complexity of water use in the west, as interpreted through the students eyes.
