CAE’S MISSION
To enrich and inspire the mountain community by bringing the arts and people together.
WHO WE ARE
For nearly 50 years, the Center for the Arts Evergreen (CAE) has been a cornerstone of creativity, learning, and cultural connection. Founded in 1975, CAE was established to foster the arts in our unique mountain community. With year-round programming, rotating exhibitions, educational workshops, and community outreach initiatives, CAE is a gathering place where creativity and culture thrive. From intimate gallery openings to large-scale arts festivals, our commitment to fostering artistic expression and appreciation knows no bounds. Over the years, CAE has partnered with local schools, organizations, and businesses to make art accessible to all. By sponsoring the Center for the Arts Evergreen, you’re not only supporting art but also making a lasting impact in our mountain community. Together, we can inspire creativity, connection, and growth.
THE IMPACT OF LOCAL ARTS
"We are so fortunate to have a vibrant art community in Evergreen and Center for the Arts continues to be a focal point for artists to learn and display their creations. People visit Evergreen specifically for the art events and festivals thus providing financial support to area businesses and our local economy. I am excited that CAE is always looking for new ways to support our community further."
Nancy Judge, President/CEO Evergreen Chamber
of Commerce
"Art is communication. It influences society by changing opinions, instilling values and translating experiences across space and time. It allows people from different cultures and different times to communicate with each other via images, sounds and stories. Our mountain community is also important to me. In many ways, the organizations I have had the opportunity to involved with in Evergreen, have shaped who I am. I donate to the Center for the Arts in honor of my mother and in the hope that art in Evergreen will build a stronger community by providing awareness and understanding of different cultures and different points of view."
Karen Lindsay, Art Enthusiast & Philanthropist
"We who live at Rocky Mountain Village are fortunate to be positioned close to the Center for the Arts Evergreen - an easy walk even for those of us using walkers - and several of our residents have enjoyed not only visiting the arts center to view the shows but also volunteering there and taking classes. Fear that the pandemic might bring about the closure of the arts center was cause for me to make the largest single donation I'd ever made to help ensure their survival."
Linda Kirkpatrick, Evergreen Resident
