Artists who studied at the Broadmoor Art Academy, later the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center, were a close-knit, articulate, lively group. Many of the murals painted by these artists were funded by New Deal Programs during the Depression. Archie Musick, saved a number of the letters written by these artists and friends between 1929 and 1944. Readers present the letters written, accompanied by music of the time and images of the writers and their artwork.
