Please note: There there will be a film crew from SCFD in the building that day who will be capturing video content from the Rawhide workshop. They will not interfere with the class but we are asking all participants to sign a waiver. Please sign and email to jennifer@bmoca.org, or bring with you to the class. We will also have some blanks on hand.
The filming is for a 26 minute documentary on the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District (SCFD). They want to capture the key role SCFD plays in supporting cultural and art organizations across Colorado, and the economical impact this brings to the region. Since BMoCA is one of the organizations supported by the SCFD, they want to highlight the impact of visual arts in Boulder. This film will potentially be broadcasted on TV and SCDF online platforms. Please feel free to contact Jennifer Chaparro at jennifer@bmoca.org if you have any questions.
