Abstract
Founded in 1925, the charter members of the Boulder Arts Guild were Myrtle Campbell, Eve Drewelowe, Ruey Hardisty, Gwendolyn Meux, Katherine Peers and John Renell. Virginia True and Muriel Sibel joined the guild several years later, drawing the group more closely to the University of Colorado's Fine Arts faculty. The guild's purpose was to encourage creative artists and to promote and advance the graphic and plastic arts. It presented public shows of its members work annually in Boulder. Special exhibits were circulated in other Colorado communities.
