The Chicano/a/x Murals of Colorado Project (CMCP) mission is to Protect, Promote, and Preserve the ongoing legacy of community murals within the state of Colorado. The project is designed to be a grassroots community effort to preserve this critical component of Colorado’s visual heritage in response to the threats presented by the murals’ increasing age, as well as the ongoing urban development and gentrification in neighborhoods and cities tied to the history of Colorado’s population.
