Unique sculpture being commissioned at the new Fire Station 3 location!

Boulder's Fire Station 3 is being relocated to 30th & Bluff to serve the expanding Boulder community and reduce response times in that area. As part of the relocation project, the city is commissioning a unique sculpture on-site to memorialize two Boulder firefighters who gave their lives while on duty.

Project Overview

This project will celebrate the new Fire Station 3, which is currently being built at 30th and Bluff Streets.

Michael Clapper (Denver, CO) was selected to create a site-specific, tribute public artwork to narrate dignity and respect to all who dedicate their lives to public service.

The tribute will specifically acknowledge two Boulder firefighters that gave their lives while on duty. An additional goal is to narrate hope, transformation, and support to the Fire Team, their families, the Boulder Community, and the desire for safe communities for all.

This opportunity is part of the relocation and reconstruction of Fire Station 3.
