Wildfire Community Arts Center was established in 2002 when a small group of individuals noted that the community was lacking in locally accessible arts opportunities. It was determined that an ideal organization would provide education and exploration of the arts for everyone, while fostering a true sense of community.
Wildfire’s programming curriculum is designed for all levels of experience including individuals that don’t self-identify as visual artists, dancers, musicians, or actors. Through this accessible programming each student can explore creativity and experience the plethora of benefits art provides regardless of previous art experience.
In addition to arts education, Wildfire Community Arts Center hosts an annual Streetfest for the community to gather and enjoy art, music and dance performances. Wildfire also coordinates local art installations and exhibitions for community enjoyment and participation.
Wildfire Community Arts Center has proudly stood by the original vision and will continue to pursue new opportunities to offer affordable arts programming for all ages and abilities while fostering a strong, welcoming community.
Building Community through the Arts
The Wildfire Community Arts Center is a grassroots not-for-profit organization housed in a historic structure in beautiful Old Town Berthoud, Colorado. We became a non-profit in 2002. We are dedicated to building community through the arts. We offer a variety of classes, performances, and events across disciplines, and we strive to help people, of all ages and levels of experience, tap into their creativity and connect to our community through the arts.
We are a place for creative expression, that specializes in making the arts accessible and un-intimidating, welcoming the seasoned artist and the fledgling creative who isn't quite sure what the next step might be. That is the power of creativity, where only separate parts existed before with creative energy a completely new composition emerges. Be it dance, drumming, murals, painting, live Cajun music, the tango, documentary films, jewelry. Wildfire believes each of us has in them some perfect creation that will not become real unless that person engages and takes action. We are here to help with that next step.
