Our July First Friday art exhibit is where creativity and imagination come to life. Featuring our local artists putting their “best foot forward” for you!

 

Our Gallery Night exhibit includes various forms of art, such as paintings, sculptures, photographs, installations, and mixed media pieces. This exhibit showcases the works of our members, exploring personal messages and emotions of their art.

Please consider a purchase while visiting. Not only do you get to enjoy a beautiful piece of art forever, but you are also supporting your local non-profit art community and the individual artists who put their hearts and souls into each work.    

 

Gallery Night is brought to you in part by our Platinum Members, The National Endowment for the Arts, and Colorado Creative Industries.
