Hand in hand with community partners, On the Road ~ San Luis Valley brings together an array of voices from the Valley for a free and open to the public series of Campfire Conversations.
On the Road journeys into rural Colorado meeting people where they are and experiencing first-hand the relationships we hold with the places we call home. Along the way, we come to know educators & entrepreneurs, farmers & ranchers, funders & frontline workers, artists and outfitters, outdoor advocates and cultural stewards. In their stories, we are offered a window into the lived-experiences of real people making their way in real communities across Colorado. Meet the San Luis voices that we’ll hear from on November 2!
