Street Wise Boulder takes place on traditional unceded territories of the Cheyenne, Ute and Arapaho people as well as 48 additional Nations that called Colorado home. We ask that you join us in acknowledging the Cheyenne, Ute and Arapaho and all of the 48 nations, their communities, their elders, present day as well as future generations. We can do this in many ways both personal and political. We must commit to giving reparations financially and in the form of land back if we have the means. We must organize and commit to allyship. We must listen to and learn from Indigenous people, who lived sustainably with the land for thousands of years before colonization.

Street Wise Boulder is an annual “ARTivism” mural festival in Boulder, CO established in 2019 by Street Wise Arts. Street Wise Boulder aims to amplify arts and culture, represent cultural diversity and encourage dialogue around social advocacy and resilience through the installation of public art murals and related programming in the City of Boulder. We prioritize equality and representation among featured artists, across sectors of gender, identity, race, sexual preference and socioeconomic status.
