This Colorado Gives season (Nov 1 – Dec 9), we’re fundraising to bring your most-requested studio offerings to life.
This campaign is not about “more equipment.”
It’s about expanding access to the kinds of creative learning the community is asking for most.
Your gift helps ensure:
More advanced craft pathways become available to local learners
Culturally significant and traditional craft practices are preserved
Community partnerships deepen through mobile and outreach-based art
Groundworks continues growing as a true gathering space — a place to connect, belong, and create
Every Dollar Doubled
Thanks to a matching gift from a generous donor, every contribution to Crafted by Community will be doubled — amplifying your impact and helping us reach our $55,000 goal twice as fast. Your gift doesn’t just expand what’s possible in our studios — it helps secure the future of creative learning for everyone in Boulder County.
Welcome!
At Groundworks Art Lab, art is for everyone. Everyone who feels a call to create, express an idea, or channel an emotion is welcome to come through our doors and make something all their own.
Whether you want to find your flow in ceramics or bang away in our blacksmith shop, we carve out space for people to connect—to themselves, to elemental materials, to raw creativity, and to one another.
From first-timers to full-blown professionals, everyone is invited to explore, experiment, and make something real. We believe art unlocks something essential in each of us. And we’re here to make sure everyone can get their hands on it.
