This week on the Regional Roundup, we'll pay a visit to the First People's Festival that took place in Estes Park, Colorado, from January 16 to 18, 2026. The three-day event brought together Indigenous artists, educators, and community members for fashion, art, dance, and storytelling.
We also learn about a program that teaches high school students trade skills, and puts those skills to work building affordable housing.
And we’ll also take a closer look at the Colorado River Basin, where the U.S. Department of the Interior has released a draft environmental impact statement outlining potential paths forward for managing the river and its two largest reservoirs, Lake Powell and Lake Mead.
We’ll round out the show with a conversation with the filmmaker behind a new documentary examining the crisis in local journalism.
Hear the RMCR Regional Roundup on Wednesday mornings at 8:30 on KSUT.
