Land Acknowledgement:
Fort Collins Mural Project acknowledges, with respect, that the land we are on today is the traditional and ancestral homelands of the Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Ute Nations and peoples. This was also a site of trade, gathering, and healing for numerous other Indigenous people. We commit to ally-ship, to listen to and learn from Indigenous people, who lived sustainably with the land for thousands of years before colonization.
