This fall, keep your lawn chairs out as the Boulder Library Foundation presents more Creekside Concert Series performances!

We are pleased to announce that we have hired Chris Barge as our first Executive Director. Chris will formally join us August 23 and will be instrumental in helping us chart a course to further our vision of creating a community of lifetime learning and participation with the Boulder Library Foundation.

Boulder Library Foundation and PLAY Boulder Foundation are proud to present accessible tickets to patrons. Arts in the Park was created to reactivate the City’s local arts and culture organizations, and Boulder’s Civic Area, after the devastating effects of COVID-19 on the performing arts community. If you have the means, we encourage you to purchase tickets.

Over the last few years, we have been proud to fund 90% of the Boulder Public Library programs. A library needs more than just programs; however, it requires a place to put on those programs—physical spaces that match the first-class offerings that the library provides. The Foundation has championed a capital campaign to support the Boulder Library system’s expansion with the new state-of-the-art NoBo Library branch.

Thanks to the Boulder Library Foundation, the Library Concert Series has recently recorded several sessions in the Canyon Theater featuring musicians John Gunther-woodwinds, Gonzalo Teppa-bass, Victor Mestas-piano–as well as Music Mediation musicians Tom Weiser-vocals, James Hoskins-cello, and Dexter Payne-woodwinds. Boulder Channel 8 is preparing these recording sessions to air in March and we cannot wait to give you the links for these performances!

The Boulder Library Foundation has gifted 2 Short Story Dispensers to the Boulder Public Library and they are up and running! Thanks to Short Édition, a publishing house of Short Literature: poetry, short stories and ‘flash fiction’, Boulder has become a ‘Storied City’!
