Both Glen and I have been quite busy trying to secure a building so we can bring music and art to the East Side of Pueblo. There’s a tired, old house two doors to the east that’s been boarded up way too long. We’d like to take the boards off, fix it up and make a happy place that kids and adults can go to make music and art. We feel there’s much too little of the “feel good” stuff in life. When budgets are being crunched, those are the first things to go. We want to bring back the things that make life’s stressed a little less stressful. If we can teach kids how to play guitar, piano, trumpet or any instrument we can get donated (because we don’t have any right now) it’s going to make the East Side a little brighter. Kids love art and there’s quite a bit of land where kids can paint and create. We’ll be able to show the art and find our future talent. If all things work out this might be in the future for Occupy the Roads in addition to our little Red House, called Pueblo House. (more…)
