Artwork rooms
Curated ways into the collection — themed walls of Boulder County artwork grouped by mood, color, subject, and place. Step through a doorway and the wall rehangs.
27 rooms, in 5 wings.
Boulder itself.
The slabs, the creek, the meadow — the places you can walk to, as the people who live here paint them.

In one colour.
Rooms built from the paint itself — a single hue, a graphite-and-gold contrast, a wall with no colour in it at all.
Ways of seeing.
Less about what a work depicts than how it looks at it — quiet, abstract, or close enough to count the petals.
The animals.
Our neighbours, one species at a time — gathered from what each work's own description says it depicts.
None of these?
Every room is a view of the same collection. These two hold all of it.
