The Empire Grange, founded in 1904 in a farming town, Fort Collins, Colorado.
The building that we use today as an event space for social gathering in Fort Collins, Colorado was dedicated in July 1912 after its construction using donated bricks and volunteer labor. This historic building now provides a place for the arts and for community activities. It is a gathering place for diverse groups. Part of the Empire Grange No. 148’s mission is to manage this historic building. To this end, we strive to do this in a fair and equitable manner and to maintain our organization’s financial health as well as the building’s physical health. Our goal remains that this building continues to serve as a gathering space for the Fort Collins and surrounding communities for many years to come.

January 12, 2025(1 event) – Imagine coming into a room where there is 'full permission'. The music progresses through different rhythms and emotional expressions, while your body stretches, skips, stomps, dances, and sits in full presence. All of this with no formal steps to follow-- just a safe, welcoming space to become present and express, in whatever ways you feel called in the moment. That’s conscious dance. Wild Embodiment |
