“Streetmosphere” Kickstarter Campaign a winner

Tuesday morning, it looked as if Beet Street’s online fundraising campaign to save Streetmosphere was going to go down to the 5 p.m. deadline. But by 2:15 or so, the non-profit art group was able to declare victory.

“We just hit our goal,´ said Mary Beth Polce, development manager at Beet Stret. “We’re so appreciative. We have 319 backers and we’re now going over our goal. We’re at $17,381.”

The campaign was live for 20 days, all in an attempt to keep its summer street art program alive. Known as Streetmosphere, the program funds 90 artists in a variety of performances and art shows.

Empowering communities

Rocky Mountain Health Plans (RMHP), part of the UnitedHealthcare family, has pledged its commitment to uplift these communities through substantial investments in organizations addressing the distinct needs of our communities.

“We fill the streets with art and culture every weekend through the summer,” Polce said. “This will allow us to go through Labor Day.”
