Valley of the Arts and Colterris Winery are proud to present a collaborative summer art event at the stunning Colterris Overlook in Palisade. On Saturday, August 2nd from 5 to 7 p.m., guests are invited to enjoy a curated outdoor exhibition featuring local artists whose work celebrates the spirit and landscape of the Grand Valley. Art will be installed throughout the winery grounds, offering a unique blend of culture and scenery. The evening will also include live music by Cody Jeffryes, local food truck GJ Fusion, and Colterris’s award-winning wines—perfect for a relaxing and inspiring summer gathering. This free event reflects Valley of the Arts’ mission to support local artists in their careers while honoring the beauty and creativity rooted in our community. Join us at 3548 E ½ Rd, Palisade, CO 81526, and celebrate the place we live and thrive through art.

The Art at the Overlook exhibition will feature original works by a group of Western Slope artists, installed throughout the scenic Colterris winery grounds. The featured pieces will explore the theme of “The Grand Valley,” offering a range of perspectives on place, land, and community. Guests will have the opportunity to meet the artists, enjoy live music, and relax with local wine and food as the sun sets over Palisade.

“This event is about more than just showcasing art,” says Meghan Reker, Creative Director of Valley of the Arts. “It’s about creating space for artists to connect with the community. We’re excited to collaborate with Colterris to offer an experience that’s immersive, accessible, and rooted in our shared sense of place.”

“The Barrel Sculpture is a way for us to show off local artists from around the valley while also brining the fun and beauty of wine to the mix. Having a wall of barrels showcasing our local artists is a perfect picture spot for guests and great way to show us all off on social media!” - Keenan High
