In that same spirit, it’s fitting that the district’s creative expression extends well beyond its galleries’ walls, with colorful and innovative street art around nearly every corner and an influential annual mural event called the Colorado Crush Street Art Festival in September. One of Denver’s creative hubs, River North Art District (RiNo) leans heavily on its industrial past, preferring to revitalize historic warehouses and factories rather than tearing things down. Finally, artists regard the city’s walls and surfaces as living canvases, so don’t be surprised if you go looking for something listed below and find a new piece in its place. Please use common sense and don’t go traipsing into unfamiliar areas alone or at night. Also, street art, by its nature, is often found in alleyways, under bridges or in abandoned lots. Many of the works listed below were commissioned by businesses, events or communities, while others were unsanctioned paintings or graffiti - all are in the open air for anyone to view and enjoy. There are many more examples across the city - far more than we could possibly cover here - so be prepared to stumble across surprises along the way and in other neighborhoods throughout the city.Ī few things to note: We’re using the term “street art” fairly broadly here. If you’re interested in tracking down thought-provoking murals, graffiti and street art in Denver, we invite you to embark on a tour of the areas and compositions listed below.
