New statues from Colorado and Utah artists installed on CMU's campus GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. — Colorado Mesa University has expanded its Campus Art Walk and outdoor art installation through a new collaboration with the Grand Junction Downtown Development Authority (DDA) and its vaunted Art on the Corner program. The partnership has created new opportunities for students, artists and the community to experience art on CMU’s campus. The expanded Campus Art Walk announcement aligned with Art Fest, which took place Oct. 2-3, 2026. The Art Walk partnership expands on CMU’s commitment to making art a visible and accessible part of campus life integrated with community collaboration. Through the partnership, artwork procured by the DDA will become part of the on-campus statue collection on a rotating basis. The first five pieces were installed on Oct. 2.
