DON'T MISS 'FOR THE LOVE OF BOULDER' ARTS INTERVIEW

If you feel an affinity for the place you live, it turns out that culture might have something to do with it. Arts Editor Chloe Veltman interviewed author Peter Kageyama about this idea during a recent town hall talk in Boulder, which was hosted by the city’s Office of Arts and Cultural Services. 

During the interview, Peter shared thoughts from his book, “For the Love of Cities,” which examines factors that make a city emotionally engaging, like access to the arts, green building, locally grown food and more. His visit to the city marked the launch of Boulder's Community Cultural Plan.

Listen to the full interview during “The Colorado Art Report” on Sept. 5 at 10:30 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. You can also stream Chloe’s conversation with Peter at cprnews.org after Sept. 5.

“The Colorado Art Report” provides in-depth arts coverage and explores topics that raise critical discourse about culture in Colorado.
