Ninth Annual Denver Arts Week Will Showcase The Mile High City's Creative Community

For the ninth straight year, Denver Arts Week will be a celebration of the city’s deeply-rooted arts scene. The event, running from November 6-14, 2015, is presented by VISIT DENVER, The Convention & Visitors Bureau; and it will highlight more than 300 events at Denver’s vast collection of galleries, museums, performing arts centers and neighborhoods – many of which are free or deeply discounted.

Denver Arts Week kicks off with a free Know Your Arts First Friday event, an evening of art walks with dozens of art galleries open late, offering live music, art demonstrations and a chance to interact with local artists. The week continues with several more annual favorite events – Night at the Museums, during which many of the city’s top museums stay open until 10 p.m. for free, and Denver’s On Stage, a series of deals and discounts on performing arts around Denver. Partners include Denver Film Festival, the Denver Art Museum and the Denver Museum of Nature & Science.

“Every year, Denver Arts Week showcases and celebrates Denver’s extensive arts scene,” says Jayne Buck, vice president of tourism at VISIT DENVER, The Convention & Visitors Bureau. “For our visitors and residents, it is a perfect opportunity to experience the city’s cultural significance through visual arts, performing arts, film and history and to understand its significance in the larger art community.”
