FORT COLLINS - Fort Collins has an incubator program for technology and one for food-related businesses, so why not one for the arts?
That's a question Dawn Putney, owner of Toolbox Creative, asked herself after seeing an innovative program in New York aimed at getting artists exposure. The Art Lab, launched this summer, provides a platform for local artists, musicians and other creative talents to showcase and present their work. At the same time, it puts good use to otherwise empty storefronts in downtown Fort Collins.
