About

The RKY MTN WALLS Art Festival was born in the Summer of 2018, after the So-Gnar Creative Division and the Town of Granby partnered together to create the first community mural in Grand County that also happened to be the largest! After seeing the community come together and support this public art initiative, the seeds of RKY MTN WALLS were planted.

Drawing from the beauty of the Colorado mountains, our unique wildlife and the state’s colorful art scene, RKY MTN WALLS will be the first ever street art festival in Grand County with the goal of bringing the thriving local and national art scene to the mountains. Through the creation of permanent large-scale public murals, we will provide a platform for Colorado's diverse art scene to contribute to the county’s cultural legacy for years to come.

The inaugural year will see 16 artists, 90% of whom are local, travel together from Denver up to the mountains for a week-long festival and artist retreat. The mural installations will take place over 7-10 days, running from June 19 – 26, 2019 and the festival is completely free to attend.
