Colorado Center for the Blind building signFor several years, ĢƵ and the Colorado Center for the Blind (CCB) have been collaborating on Shared Visions, an accessible art exhibit. This last summer the two organizations also joined forces on an exhibit held at the US National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder. The dynamics between the ĢƵ and CCB classes seems to inspire everyone, the students, teachers, and the public! CCB students at potter's wheels at ĢƵCCB students dissecting sharks at ĢƵAnn Cunningham, an art teacher at CCB, said that the best thing about being a part of the ĢƵ community were the quality of our instructors. “Nathan (Abels) and Katie (Caron) are both excellent artist as well as amazing teachers. Truly, I am very impressed with both of them,” said Ann. The CCB curriculum is expanding because of the collaboration. The Center now has new methods to explore because of the newly acquired skills of their teachers. “I also know that when I need to ask questions Katie and Nathan will be there with answers. ĢƵ’s generous donation of a pottery wheel will enable us to continue building our skills in our pottery program,” said Ann, of the graciously fostered partnership.

In fact, some of the teachers would love to take classes here, moving beyond just a partnership but a true relationship with ĢƵ. The Colorado Center for the Blind and ĢƵ Move Mountains together!
