Kelly’s first call was to Joey Nicosia, owner of Joey’s Northside Market, who made a donation to help defray the cost of paints and other supplies the window-decorating artists would use.

Carbondale Arts has been one of the organizers and supporting partners of a new “Arts Through It All” campaign to get through the interim. The initiative supports local artists by promoting shopping small and local for the holidays. It has also started a dialogue between art organizations from Aspen to Redstone about how to support each other during this difficult time.
