Opening Night: Block Party featuring Ashley Cornelius & Tejon Street Corner Thieves

Ashely Cornelius, the current Poet Laureate of the Pikes Peak Region, has been commissioned by Green Box to create and perform a spoken word piece to kick-off the festival. Honoring our history and future, this work is sure to kick things off with a bang.

Tejon Street Corner Thieves is an outlaw blues and trash-grass band based in Colorado Springs. They have continuously toured, recorded and won awards since 2015. Now an internationally renowned musical sensation, we are thrilled to welcome this dynamic group to open this year’s Green Box Arts Festival!
