Arts Market Survey Results Are In:
LOVELAND IS A WINNER!!

On Monday, July 19th, Artspace Projects Inc. will announce the results of the artists’ surveys conducted this spring and discuss the strong potential they have discovered for an arts development in Downtown Loveland. Please bring all your friends and artists to the Rialto Theater at 7 PM Monday evening, July 19th to learn about these exciting findings!

This spring, Novo Restoration, in partnership with the Erion Foundation, the City of Loveland, the Community Foundation of Northern Colorado and Mueller and Associates, funded two market surveys conducted by Artspace Projects Inc., America’s leading non-profit developer for the arts, to gauge the market for affordable housing and work space for individual artists and for arts/creative organizations. The results are exciting!

The surveys are telling us that there is a strong market for an affordable artist housing project in Downtown Loveland! Once the full survey results have been shared with the public and with Loveland’s City Council, Novo hopes to work with all our current partners to begin changing the dream of an arts-centered project at the Feed & Grain or another historic Loveland location into reality.

Plan to make Monday July 19th a total arts exploration by attending the Novo Invitational Art Exhibit at the Feed & Grain (two blocks west of the Rialto) immediately before the Survey results are announced. The Novo Invitational will run Monday afternoon from 4 until 6:30 PM and will showcase artists who took the surveys. Loveland’s own award-winning sculptor, Rosetta, leads the featured artists working in media from painting to sculpture to photography and jewelry.

We invite everyone to join us for both of these exciting arts events in Downtown Loveland on Monday, July 19th!

One More Note:

On July 20th, Artspace will present their findings to City Council. Please show your support for this project by attending or by letting your Councilors know how important you think Artspace is to Loveland!
