Host families sought for Chilean student musicians

Western Colorado University will host a group of high school musicians and chaperones from Chile for an international educational exchange from Oct. 11-18. The program focuses on language learning, cultural immersion and building lasting connections between Gunnison and Chile.

Organizers are seeking local families to host one or more students during their stay. No special experience is required—only a willingness to share your home and help guests experience everyday life in the Gunnison Valley.
