foxnews.comAsh-tonishing: Colorado Wildfires Send Ash Raining Down
LOVELAND, Colorado—Residents in northeastern Colorado were treated to ash falling from the sky as the largest remaining wildfires in the state continue to rage. Footage shared by the Colorado Park Wildlife’s Northeastern Region on Oct. 22 shows a glimpse of the phenomenon. In the video below, Area Wildlife Manager Jason Duetsch gives a short brief on the conditions at Lon Hagler State Wildlife Area in Loveland, where flames from a nearby wildfire can be seen in the distance. Firefighters are expected to fully contain the Cameron Peak Fire by Nov. 8 and the East Troublesome Fire by Nov. 10. Northern Colorado residents previously reported waking up to their outdoor possessions covered in ash after the Cameron Peak Fire sent ash raining down on the area last month.

Over recent decades, as Art Basel anointed Miami the center of the art world (for a week each year, anyway) and learning institutions like the New World School of the Arts keep churning out artists, Miami's art community has grown. Oolite Arts, which started in 1984 as ArtCenter/South Florida, has been around long enough to nurture some artists through long careers and it's still around. So perhaps it only makes sense that the Miami Beach-based nonprofit would step up to help visual artists like Loveland in their time of need. On Thursday the organization inaugurated the Oolite Arts Relief Fund for COVID-19, seeding it with $25,000 in funds repurposed from canceled programming.
