The Cultural Office unifies the power of arts & culture across our community. Through centralized services, gatherings, and strategic programs, we make creative workers & organizations more powerful together and positively impactful for the Pikes Peak region. We are proud to be our community’s local arts agency, founded by local arts leaders, to weave together a future “community united by creativity.” This year is our 20th Anniversary!
At this time in local and national history, the arts offer us many things we really need: belonging, connection, innovation, mental and social well-being. However, they often struggle as small businesses, nonprofits, and entrepreneurs with limited resources. The Cultural Office offers centralized services to help them grow, connect, and more powerfully deliver the results our region needs to truly thrive.
Today, we work toward lively collaboration across creative industries & communities, sustainable arts organizations, increasing opportunities for creative work, rising professional excellence, amplified visibility and influence, and stronger civic and
economic impact from local arts & culture.
Of the 300+ creatives who attended COPPR workshops in 2025, 95% said they “learned something that will help me in my career.”
“The vibrant landscape you’ve built without the resources or infrastructure of larger cities, is proof of COPPR's vision and dedication.” — Katrina Van Marter
