Last Wednesday evening, June 10th, 2015, was another great meet up at the Hub with Code for Boulder, where the culmination of this very website began six weeks ago. April 29th, 2015 was the first visit for three Alley Art Amazin’ team members, Tif Choate, Elizabeth Matthews and Nadya Davis, to the Impact Hub in Boulder to gather with members of Code for Boulder. Code for Boulder is a network of people committed to using their voices and hands, in collaboration with local governments, to make our cities better. They meet up every other Wednesday evening at 6:30pm at the Impact Hub in Boulder.

The members of Code for Boulder have partnered with Alley Art Amazin’ , with volunteers in the computer sciences, to help build and host our website. Many of their members have given countless hour of coding expertise and design direction in order for our project here in Lafayette to be it’s best. We are so excited to see the transformation of the website and how it will be a great tool for the growth of Alley Art Amazin’.

On May 17th, a group of 15 artists and volunteers gathered at 95a Bistro and Sushi to celebrate the coming 2015 painting season. They discussed methods to connect and make this years murals better than ever. Team members were introduced and excited artists spoke of upcoming projects.
Some exciting announcements anticipated are: the El Mercado/ Taco Stand on S. Public Rd. and Emma Street will be the first project this summer, spearheaded by artist, Sarah Spencer. Look out for that art to grace the outbuilding behind the taco stand. Also, the Noble Treasures/ Curating the Cool building wall, facing the Post Brewery will soon be cleaned, primed and have a fun and whimsical bicycle/ chicken design coming up this June by the Alley Art Amazin’ team, headed up by artist, Tif Choate.
