​Treasurer, Steve Tice 
Steve has been in love with Estes Park since his first visit in 2007. In 2019, the universe whispered that a permanent move from Cedar Park, TX would be good for his wife Peggy and him. The universe gives good advice! Since completing the move, Steve has wound down his career as a software engineer and fired up his efforts to create (and support the creation of) art. He is a founding member of musical duo Random and True. After also starting Estes Nightscapes, Steve partnered with Aspen and Evergreen Gallery to make his night sky photographs available to the public. Steve firmly believes serving the artist community of Estes Park is a genuine privilege.​
