DENVER — File under “only in Colorado:” Denver youth submitted artistic designs for skis, then worked with local nonprofit Arts Street and other organizations to make their artistic visions come to life. Youth not only learned how to create an actual pair of skis — they then made their own pair and decorated them, all for an auction benefit that will fund the next set of Arts Street students.
Tutugirl Bamba, 19, one of eight participating youth, learned about Arts Street from her brother. She shared how amazing it is to know that someone may buying a pair of skis with her design printed on them.
