We’re so grateful for all the support and work Ann Bowar does for CCJA. She was selected as one of the recipients of the following project, Catalysts! Make sure to check out the project! Thank you Ann! ❤️

The Denver Theatre District (DTD) presents Catalysts, a community artwork by renowned British-American artist Jann Haworth. Catalysts features a collage of 34 stenciled portraits of behind-the-scenes individuals who are integral to the success and vibrancy of Denver arts and culture, as selected by participating arts organizations.

The Catalysts website features the story behind each portrait, deepening the impact of the work by sharing the contributions these individuals make to the arts organizations and communities they tirelessly support.

Catalysts is located on the side of the Buell Theatre on Champa Street between 13th Street and 14th Street and will run until 2027. The Denver Theatre District is proud to host the work of Jann Haworth and invites you to celebrate the incredible contributions of these exceptional individuals

🎭✨ Catalysts: Honoring the Faces Behind Denver Arts & Culture ✨🎭
The Denver Theatre District proudly presents Catalysts, a community artwork by renowned British-American artist Jann Haworth. This collage features 34 portraits of individuals who play a vital role in shaping and sustaining Denver’s vibrant arts and culture.

In 2024, we nominated Ann Bowar- who plays a pivotal role in CCJA. We are so excited to share that she was selected! Thank you for all you do, Ann!

Each honoree was selected by a local arts organization with essays detailing their extraordinary contributions. In June 2024, Haworth led a hands-on workshop to bring these portraits to life, which were then photographed, enlarged, and transformed into a triptych art billboard.
Catalysts will be on display starting March 14th on the side of the Buell Theatre (Champa St., between 13th & 14th) and will remain there until 2027.
Celebrate the incredible impact of these changemakers in our community. Stop by and take it all in! Visit our website at Catalystsproject.com
