The Orchard Town Center (OTC) and the Colorado Homebuilding Academy (CHA) are working together to create a fun summer event where CHA students and local artists create works of art in the form of beautiful patio planters. OTC selected CHA as the beneficiary for “Flower Power” a fundraiser to benefit those wanting to learn construction skills to get back on their feet and seek employment.
CHA students and their instructors from the Academy have built beautiful outdoor planter boxes. CHA students were given the opportunity to practice hands-on construction skills by constructing each planter and then local artists from around the Denver Metro area were given free creative license to create and complete the masterpieces.
The decorated planters will be on display at the Orchard Town Center off 147th and I-25 for the month of August and the winners will pick up their planters Friday, August 28. All proceeds will be donated to CHA which will allow the academy to continue to provide free construction training skills programs for the community.
The auction will be hosted on line: https://www.charityauctionstoday.com/auctions/planter-box-project-12617
