Exhibit

An exhibit and sale will be held at the Longmont Museum, from November 16, 2013 through January 19, 2014. The exhibit will display works of art created from fallen limbs from the Champion Cottonwood Tree. A portion of the sale will go to the Boulder County Parks and Open Space Foundation and the remainder to be shared with the creating artist.

Champion Cottonwood Tree

This stately tree, estimated to be 121 years old, 105 feet tall and nearly nine feet in diameter, has recently met its demise. We have decided to let the tree stand for as long as it will, but that as wood falls to the ground, we will harvest it and offer it to select Colorado woodworkers to create artistic pieces.
