The Mountain Valley Weavers
Nestled in the vibrant upstairs studio at 209 8th Street in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, the Mountain Valley Weavers have woven a rich tapestry of tradition and creativity since 1996. Originally established in 1988 as a vocational weaving program by Mountain Valley Developmental Services, the Weavers received a generous endowment of three looms from a local Aspen family to kickstart their journey. Over the years, this program has empowered adults receiving services from Mountain Valley to hone their weaving skills and create stunning hand-woven goods. In 1996, the historic building underwent a transformation, adding a retail space alongside the studio, providing a showcase for the exquisite craftsmanship of the Weavers. Fast forward to 2013, and the retail store evolved into Art on 8th, a thriving gallery celebrating the fine craft of local Colorado artists while still featuring the beloved woven creations of the Mountain Valley Weavers. Today, the weaving studio remains a focal point, drawing both visitors and locals alike to experience the magic of this enduring tradition. The studio is upstairs, the Bleu Door an eclectic, exciting boutique resides in the old gallery space downstairs.
When visiting you can come through the boutique or through the stairs located between the pizza restaurant doors.
