Artists sought for murals

    The mural project will depict the findings of a recent health and environmental assessment, which is used to shape the state’s public health improvement plan. In addition to sharing the latest assessment’s findings in “Colorado’s Story: 2018 Public Health and Environmental Assessment,” the department is fostering the creation of murals to connect with Coloradans and motivate them to get involved in improving their health and environment.
