    Nor’wood Development Group and the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center announced today, Nov. 20

    The space currently known as the FAC Modern will be reborn as the UCCS Gallery of Contemporary Art

    downtown’s momentum.”

    opportunity to showcase the work of regional, national and international artists in an additional
