Why It Matters
The Elev8 Art Walk builds momentum for the upcoming Elev8 Arts Center, a creative hub where art meets purpose.
Paid classes for adults help fund the heart of the mission: free creative experiences for local youth.
On special days, the center opens to kids from surrounding neighborhoods, giving them a safe space to explore art, build confidence, and grow their imaginations.
When you attend, share, or participate, you are building something real in Colorado Springs.
