Tuesday – Friday: 9 AM – 5 PM
Saturday: 10 AM – 4 PM
Sunday & Monday: Closed
3D: Beyond the Boundaries is a look at 3-D artwork from every angle. We have time-tested media like bronze and stone. We also have artists who are pushing the boundaries with installations, sculptural textiles, assemblage, and more. This exhibition features 31 artists with almost 50 pieces of work. 3D: Beyond the Boundaries will bring you joy, make you feel, and push you to think outside the box.
In conjunction with the exhibition in CAE’s main gallery, we are pleased to welcome our first mini-exhibition by one of CAE’s first resident studio artists, Tricia Rosenthal. Rosenthal’s exhibition, 3D to 2D: Evergreen Sculpture Portraits, presents a series of 15 original oil paintings that bring 15 beloved Evergreen sculptures to the canvas. Inspired by her time as president of Sculpture Evergreen, Tricia is the perfect artist to create portraits of the public art in Evergreen. Rosenthal’s mini-exhibition hangs in conjunction with 3D: Beyond the Boundaries in the newly rededicated Michael McGoldrick Executive Classroom.

About Mark Morris
As a pro skier, trail runner and overall outdoor athlete, fifth-generation Coloradan Mark Morris seeps himself in the wonder of nature, where most of his song inspiration emerges. He sings about skiing, trail running and other outdoor recreation, finding that most people who live here instantly relate to the music.
“I get 90% of my inspiration from nature,” Morris said about his overall life — not just his songwriting.
Growing up in Idaho Springs, he began playing guitar at age 10, then graduated from the University of Colorado in 2007 with a degree in music business. Since then, he has been a touring musician, promoter, teacher and athlete — all of which have taken him worldwide, teaching camps and workshops. When he’s not playing shows or skiing big mountains, he works as a music promoter and talent buyer for festivals and events. He co-founded Rapidgrass Festival in 2009 in his hometown of Idaho Springs.
