What
Let’s stART is a long-term, phased project of the Pueblo West Women’s League (PWWL) to enhance Pueblo West through the addition of art, whether in sculpture, landscaping or other aesthetic improvement throughout the district.
Who
The PWWL, a 501(c)(3), serves the community of Pueblo West through donations to local groups, including the library, schools, animal services, the parks and recreation center, fire and sheriff services, Cattails Crossing and other non-profits and projects that support Pueblo West, as well as providing scholarships. In addition to this financial support, the group has decided to allot a portion of its fundraising monies to Let’s stART.
Where
The proposed (tentative) locations for enhancement are initially high visibility areas, starting with the “core” of the district (S. McCulloch Blvd., East Joe Martinez Blvd, Civic Center Park, Hahn’s Peak Blvd., etc.,) and then moving to other areas such as Industrial Blvd. and Purcell Blvd., and then north of the Highway 50. Sculpture types are open, and can include bronze, metal, wire, acrylic, cement and other materials based on artist medium as well as durability and versatility.
When
The PWWL implemented the first phase of Let’s stART in 2013.
How
The PWWL has a Let’s stART committee that seeks out artists of interest, artists who are from Pueblo County, who are community-oriented and understand and appreciate our goals. The committee vets the artists as well, and then works with chosen artists not only throughout the project, but also post-project. The group also seeks out locations of interest, speaking to local businesses as well as the Metro District and Parks and Recreation.
Why
To help enhance the Pueblo West community, bring art to the area, improve the aesthetics, and garner community support and involvement.
