RECEPTION HIGHLIGHTS

| We are delighted to have this amazing musical trio, The Russellers and JJ Steele playing during the reception, June 7 from 1-4pm. What a fabulous addition to a fabulously creative event! The Russellers are Dennis and Beverly Gray Russell. Dennis is a poet and songwriter, and Beverly is best known for her musical saw. They share their original music and poetry that depict their ranching lifestyle on the beautiful Huerfano River in Southern Colorado as well as covering traditional stories and songs around campfires. JJ Steele has been entertaining folks for years with cowboy tales, poetry and song and will put you in touch with visions of the West. Sponsoring these popular local Colorado/Western entertainers are the Silverwest Airport Board themselves, what a generous and thoughtful gift!

FEATURED ARTIST
Marley Seifert from Leadville, a young and vivacious hiker and mountain lover is coming to show her works during the reception, June 7th. You will want to meet her!! Don't miss this one day opportunity!!! She says, when she's not creating, you’ll find her outside basking in everything the outdoors has to offer. No wonder she has painted ALL of Colorado's 14ers!! "Art is something we are all connected to and surrounds us everyday. It can take us to a moment, feeling, or memory - I want to capture those moments we have all experienced. Whether that moment be an unforgettable mountain bike ride, camping under the stars, or watching the alpenglow hit the mountains."
