Boulder Star

Over 70 Years of Tradition

2023 marked the 76th anniversary of the Boulder Star on Flagstaff Mountain. The beloved Boulder Star on Flagstaff Mountain was first lit in December 1947 and has made its holiday appearance every year since.

The Boulder Chamber is proud of its role as the steward of this community asset and thankful for the support it receives, through sales of the Boulder Star Card, Star Wine, and the generosity of other partners, to keep the Boulder Star shining bright.

The 2023 Star Card design was created by local artist Daria Chechushkova. Daria was born and grew up in the City of Vladimir, Russia, where she learned to appreciate picturesque medieval architecture. Along with a master's degree in ancient history, she developed her passion for painting by creating local postcards and tourist guides. In 2022, she came to the U.S. as an act of her disapproval of Russian imperialism and in an attempt to find her place in the free world.

A portion of the Star Card proceeds go towards the ongoing care of the Boulder Star.

Stay connected with the Boulder Chamber to have the first look at our 2024 Star Card art, to be announced later this year.
