CU Boulder Mountain Research Station 100th Anniversary Kickoff: Dinner and a Seminar in the Wildrose Dining Hall
As a kickoff to celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the CU Boulder Mountain Research Station (2 years late…) and the completion of the renovation to the historic Wildrose Dining Hall we will be holding a two-week special event – a dinner + seminar series. Dinner will start at 6pm followed by a talk later in the hour.  The Mountain Research Station is located 15 minutes north of Nederland at 818 County Rd 116, Nederland CO 80466.

The ultimate goal of the 100th anniversary celebrations will be to raise money for a field course endowment to support inclusive field course offerings at the CU Boulder Mountain Research Station.

This initial two-week kickoff event will involve public dinners at the Wildrose Dining Hall followed by a short seminar on a topic related to work being conducted at the CU Boulder Mountain Research Station. Each dinner+seminar costs $30 USD per adult or $15 USD per child (12 and under) and we can accept cash or check ONLY.

June 28 - Amy Hoagland - MRS Artist in Residence - Sculptural Stories of the Land *
Amy Hoagland is a multidisciplinary artist that creates sculptural installations about the human
relationship within nature. She is interested in revealing the story that the land tells. Expanding
her studio into the surrounding landscape is an important part of her practice: many of her
concepts come from organizing her thoughts during time spent in the environment. Amy believes
in the power of empathy and creates work that connects viewers to their senses to cultivate
deeper empathy for our landscape.

Amy is a Louisville, Kentucky born artist. She received her BFA from the University of
Kentucky in 2016 and her MFA in Sculpture from University of Colorado, Boulder in 2022. She
is a 2022 recipient of a Windgate Fellowship for sustainable art presented by Honoring the
Future. Amy is passionate about art’s ability to create social change and is a member of the
Boulder/Denver Art + Science + Action cohort as well as Engaged Arts and Humanities Scholars
at the University of Colorado, Boulder. She is a recipient of a 2021 RedLine Insite Fund in
support of a community based artwork created to advocate for hope and resilience in the wake of
local climate events. She currently lives and works in Boulder, Colorado.
