A gift to Circle H in December 2010 in celebration of incredible music experience - artist John Eliott, medium - Drywall materials. Must see in real life to enjoy the total composition of piece.
Audio & Visual Enlightenment – or “AVE ™” is a unique offering launch at the Circle H, as part of the larger vision of April Hilton to foster and grow an artist’s community in Grand County. The mission of AVE™ is to offer local Grand County and Colorado artists and ‘avenue’ to showcase, perform and promote their art. The future of AVE remains intact and may resurface again in the future.
Genesis of Audio & Visual Enlightment Event
Having lived in Grand County over 40 years April Hilton knows the endless amount of artistic talent that surrounds her. It started simply as house concert for a local artist in January of 2009, it became an intimate venue for audio and visual artists, then an exceptional evening for our guests.
AVE allows local artisans to either perform or to showcase their talent and to directly benefit from it. The efforts to promote the events are shared by the participating artists and their supporters.
The exposure, recognition, and growth, culturally and financially, will contribute to building an enhanced art community in Grand County and beyond. The arts are an important part of our culture and history in America and around the globe. Other Grand County groups work at keeping the arts alive through out our vibrant valley.
