The Portal in Colorado Springs is hosted by Imagination Celebration and moves around the city.
Imagination Celebration in Colorado Springs is responsible for our Colorado\_Portal, and works with community partners across the city to host and program it for schools, cultural spaces, events, and festivals. Imagination Celebration connects people of all ages to the brain-stimulating, community-building, life-enhancing, power of creativity by inspiring artistic and intellectual curiosity; instigating community collaborations, and promoting life-long experiential learning that helps us thrive in a changing world. The Portal is a natural extension of this search for creativity, and allows Imagination Celebration to engage a global community of collaborators and ideators like never before.
It amazes me just how universal hip-hop has become. Here in America it was originally created as a means to express ourselves despite the forces oppressing us. Blacks had few ways to convey their thoughts publicly so we confused creativity with passion in hopes that the words in our hearts would be felt. Today I spoke with a man on the other side of the world who said that positive hip-hop is blooming where he lives in Afghanistan. It’s inspirational to say the least. I’m honored to be able to share my voice with the world. This portal is a gift, a treasure in time that I feel will one day be incredibly impacting! Javier S
This is an amazing experience. Really works as art but as cultural diplomacy as well. Bravo!
A terribly important art exhibit that instantly breaks down the arbitrary borders we put between countries.
