Colorado Central Changes Hands

By On March 27, 2009 · 2 Comments · In Arts & Culture, KRCC News, Media, Shanna Lewis, Slideshow

[slideshow id=13]Denver Post columnist Ed Quillen and his wife Martha founded Colorado Central magazine fifteen years ago. Since then the quirky newsprint publication has covered everything from the arts to water rights-as long as it was about central Colorado. Just last month they sold the magazine. March was the first issue with Mike Rosso, the new owner, at the helm. KRCC’s Shanna Lewis has this retrospect and look forward.
