The Mariposa Collective is a performing arts collective dedicated to the service and support of contemporary artists and the creative process. Our mission is to nurture and support a diverse community by engaging in artistic dialogue, exploring and sharing multi-disciplinary work, and offering high quality artistic contributions to the community.
The Mariposa Collective was founded in Boulder in 1994 by Barbara Dilley (founder of the Dance Department at Naropa University and president of Naropa from 1985-1993), with Naropa Dance and Inter Arts Faculty Diane Butler, Carol McDowell, and Polly Motley as a collaborative space for its members, providing fuel for projects, and helping to inspire and develop work in the presence of others. Other past members include Lucien Wulsin, Cara Reeser, Katherine Kaufman, Christy Harris, Kim Olson, David Ortalano, Paul Temple, Mary Kite, Brigitta Hermann, Betsy Tobin, and Ana Baer. After a period of repose from 2018 - 2023, the Collective has reemerged with new members, and a renewed commitment to support independent performing artists in our community, and to provide a space for artistic exploration and collaboration.
