Denise Perreault

Denise Perreault (COM’81) of Boulder, Colo., a textile artist, was chosen by Historic Boulder to create a public art installation from reclaimed materials around the rehabilitation of the historic Hannah Barker house in downtown Boulder. The installation, a 345-foot-long chain link fence weaving that stands 6 feet high, will remain on view during the house restoration, which is expected to take about two years. Denise is also the founder of Art Parts, a creative reuse center that collects donated arts and crafts materials from industry and individuals to sell at low cost to educators, students, artists, and the public.
