Overview
- The settlement requires Vail to fund an art program for underrepresented and economically disadvantaged people.
- SeeWalker will organize a powwow at Vail’s Donovan Pavilion each year for five years, with the first expected in 2026.
- Vail will sponsor a community forum on Israel and Palestine featuring interfaith and community voices and will add annual Indigenous-led cultural training for arts staff.
- The ACLU of Colorado sued after Vail rescinded SeeWalker’s residency over an Instagram post, and the town said it would not use public funds to support a polarizing geopolitical position.
- Officials have not provided detailed timelines for implementation, and SeeWalker said she sought community-focused remedies rather than a financial payout.
