About This Piece
“March of Progress” was created to pay homage to the construction of the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in the era in which it was born, the Great Depression. A sweeping panorama, it features workers in the forefront looking over the Great Plains, the foothills of the Rockies to Red Rocks and the amphitheatre itself. It is imagined as a flowing historic overview — with the foreground figures representing the Civilian Conservation Corps.
