studios hosting a robust schedule of fine art and mountain craft classes, to affordable workspace rentals by local artists, and live/ work spaces for visiting resident artists.

Outdoors, the campus is an exhibition space for permanent and temporary public artworks; and its central plaza serves as an intimate gathering place for creative events. On the side of campus fronting Main Street, Gallery@ OMH in Old Masonic Hall draws in locals and visitors with a regular schedule of open hours, an admission-free series of contemporary art exhibitions, experimental music showcases and art-infused social gatherings.

Since its opening, the Breckenridge Arts District has hosted tens of thousands of guests through its various creative programs.

It is often cited as one of the top amenities in Breckenridge. Named a Certified Creative District in the Colorado Creative Industries program in 2016, it receives financial and marketing support from the State of Colorado, which regularly cites Breckenridge as an example for other Creative Districts to follow.

Innovative festivals including WAVE: Light + Water + Sound, Breckenridge International Festival of Arts (BIFA), Street Arts Festival and Día de los Muertos animate the campus, drawing visitors from near and far.

PROGRESS 2017–2019 Even with so many early successes, however, the Breckenridge Arts District is still young, and the process of self-assessment and strategic planning is ongoing. In 2017, BCA launched a portfolio of assessment measures that gather data and community feedback to inform strategic decision-making about the district’s programming and operations, with the goals of optimizing the Town’s creative arts assets; attracting visitors to Breckenridge; and building community participation and ownership in the creative arts experience.

“The town of Breckenridge doesn’t take its designation as a Colorado Creative Industries-certified arts district lightly, thanks to the efforts of BreckCreate, a high-energy, nonprofit arts-programming machine that produces world-class, multidisciplinary happenings that keep Breck buzzing during the summer season.”

—Westword

2014–2019 BRECKENRIDGE ARTS DISTRICT

AIMS + ACTIONS To address the various challenges identified since the Breckenridge Arts District opened its doors in 2014, BCA staff formulated a series of operational and programmatic objectives.

We began taking steps to achieve these objectives in 2017, following BCA’s institutional reorganization. The process of self-evaluation and reflection, identification of objectives, and implementation of actions to achieve those objectives is ongoing today.

PLACE AIM: Use ADC facilities to enhance efficiency, effectiveness, and relevance ACTION: Re-envisioned various facilities on campus to create more appealing and creative programming (e.g., converting Fuqua from a painting studio into a woodworking shop).

AIM: Improve OMH configuration to facilitate exhibition of art and reduce change-over work between exhibitions ACTION: Implemented minor renovations and cosmetic upgrades to the interior physical space of OMH making it possible to accommodate a wider range of artists and exhibitions. We also scheduled exhibitions for a longer viewing period, resulting in less time installing and de-installing.

The public now has an extended window of time to visit featured artwork in the gallery.

PROGRAM AIM: Use a regular schedule and staffing to make the Arts District campus a more welcoming place ACTION: Established regular public hours at Gallery@OMH, staffed by BCA studio assistants.

The gallery is now open 6 days/week, making Old Masonic Hall a hub for campus activity. BCA also now consistently programs 12/week core class workshops, 6/week open studios, 4/week + 1/month free youth programs, and 3 special event series. We instituted a “no cancellation policy” for all campus classes and open studios so that classes run and instructors get paid regardless of the number of participants registered for classes.

A REPORT TO THE COMMMUNUTY

11

AIM: Make classes and workshops more affordable, accessible, and understandable ACTION: Reduced pricing as much as possible, so that BCA is now covering programmatic costs at 50% class capacity. We simplified medium-specific program titles, and emphasized beginner classes over those requiring a higher skill level, to increase accessibility and appeal to locals and tourists.

AIM: Improve efficiency of class registration process ACTION: Implemented policy that all class participants must register/check in at Old Masonic Hall prior to class. BCA’s studio assistants now double as class registrars and gallery attendants.

AIM: Expand private classes, field trip opportunities, and outreach to Summit High School and local teens ACTION: Developed new engagement opportunities in 2018 including 13 field trips with 458 students. In 2018 we hosted 7 private classes with a revenue of $2,350. We also hosted 2 student-curated exhibitions with the help of BCA’s Junior Executive Art Panel (JEAP), a program run through Summit High School.

AIM: Collect data on participant information, attendance numbers, etc.

ACTION: Implemented consistent data collection including end-of-class patron evaluations, quarterly electronic surveys, patron registration and tracking through AudienceView ticketing software, and monthly facilities usage reports based on real numbers

AIM: Increase attendance and diversity of participants at gallery exhibitions and campus classes ACTION: Shifted programming to attract class attendees as 50% locals, 50% visitors. Programming now appeals to a wider age and cultural demographic. Greater attendance is already evidenced (i.e. achieved 50% attendance in classes, 14,000+ visitors through OMH in 2018).

12

2014–2019 BRECKENRIDGE ARTS DISTRICT

AIM: Increase the profile and relevance of the Artist-in-Residence program ACTION: Re-imagined the entire program to have more place-based relevancy. In 2019, BCA is hosting 10-14 Visiting and Exhibiting Artists-in-Residence (AIR). We program 1 weekly AIR workshop/lecture/activity, and we facilitate a community engagement project for Visiting AIRs. General public is invited to “entertain an artist� throughout the year.

AIM: Expand the scope and diversity of exhibiting and resident artists at the Arts District ACTION: Attracted much higher profile artists by offering fees and honorariums consistent with industry standards. Curated 6 major exhibitions at Old Masonic Hall featuring 12 international, regional, and local artists.

PEOPLE AIM: Reduce turnover rate among part-time staff ACTION: Hired multiple part-time staff members, who receive consistent schedules at a competitive hourly rate

AIM: Standardize screening process and credential expectations for interested instructors ACTION: Introduced a rolling online instructor application requiring cover letter, resume, and interview. Also instituted classroom observations for all ADC instructors to guide teacher improvement, and we now provide quarterly summaries of student evaluations.

AIM: Increase instructor retention and support for local artists, while reducing travel costs required by visiting instructors ACTION: Committed to recruiting and retaining instructors who live in Summit County.

An improved culture and sense of community is fostered on ADC by hosting monthly happy hours and seasonal feedback sessions for instructors. We also created opportunities for local artists to exhibit their work in an annual BCA instructor exhibition.

WHERE WE ARE TODAY • BCA has created a sustained, vibrant creative community on the Arts District campus.

• The depth, quality, and relevance of campus programming has been elevated, evidenced by 50% consistent attendance rate and customer feedback.

• Over the past 18 months, we have seen major improvements in attendance, revenue, diversity, accessibility, media coverage, community engagement initiatives, efficiency, and art world prestige.

As a center for contemporary culture, BCA brings the best art from around the world to Breckenridge audiences through exhibitions that animate indoor and outdoor spaces on the Arts District campus. As a center for community and exchange, we utilize our visiting artist program as a driver to foment ideas and amplify voices, encouraging reciprocity and inspiring innovation on local, regional, and global scales. As a center for business and commerce, we embrace creative practice—both within and surrounding the Arts District—as a way to promote place identity, drive tourism, enhance community livability, invigorate the entrepreneurial ecosystem, and ultimately serve as a model for economic development.

Ultimately, with the Breckenridge Arts District at our physical and ideological core, BCA celebrates the human experience. By providing a forum for a wide range of artistic voices and perspectives, as well as space to collaborate and create, we provide our residents and guests with a unique opportunity to celebrate our humanity through shared, real-time experiences— connecting us to the greater world, to our inner artist, and above all, to one another.

SOCIAL IMPACT BCA has also embraced programming in which the arts are used to transcend aesthetics to impact community goals ranging from public health, social equity, and environmental stewardship to sustainability.

A good portion of our contemporary exhibition series, festivals, and visiting artists at the Arts District are curated around such “social impact” topics, as a way to connect artistic interpretations to issues important to the Breckenridge community.

In 2019 and beyond, BCA forges boldly ahead with its inventive offerings, collaborating with partner groups to breathe new life into the Breckenridge Arts District and other public venues. BCA’s achievements are the result of an exemplary group effort made possible by the collaboration of many partners—from dedicated community volunteers, longstanding local arts groups, and Town departments to local and national supporters.

To accomplish this, BCA remains committed to strong governance practices, comprehensive financial management, and disciplined long-term planning, while

District and other cultural venues with the innovative slate of programming we have become known for—from festivals rich with massive spectacle art and thoughtprovoking environmental installations, to interactive experiences that instill wonder and awe, capturing the imagination of locals and guests alike.

Pioneered by the Town of Breckenridge, the BCA approach remains at the forefront of public arts thinking, offering a shining example of the myriad benefits to be gained from investing in an innovative and compelling public arts program.
