Cripple Creek Gold Rush Rodeo
Presented by Cripple Creek Gold Rush Rodeo at Teller County Fairgrounds Cripple Creek, CO
The City of Cripple Creek has a rich and colorful history. Before the discovery of gold that would change the area forever, Cripple Creek was a cattle ranch. In 1895, the only Mexican Bullfight ever fought on North American soil was staged just outside of town. And indoor rodeos were held in the early 1900’s. Today, we are proud to carry on the long tradition of folks pushing themselves and their livestock to the edge.

'Shadows Gather'
Presented by Shutter & Strum at Disruptor Gallery @ Shutter&Strum Colorado Springs, CO
Shadows Gather is a photography project that documents the alternative nightlife scene and the vibrant individuals who inhabit it. Based in Denver, Colorado, Shadow uses unconventional techniques pairing a Fuji Instax Classic Mini with iPhone flashlight lighting, along with disposable 35mm cameras to create raw, immediate images that preserve moments often overlooked. Shadows word capture subcultures rarely seen in the mainstream: gutter punks drag artists, and creatures of the night, photographed at warehouse parties, underground venues, and DIY spaces. In documenting these fleeting moments, Shadow is preserving a part of history that might otherwise be forgotten, ensuring these stories and scenes aren’t lost to time.
