This week we will post messages describing some of the cultural attractions in Denver. Today we start with…

MUSEUMS

Denver Art Museum

**All registered attendees will receive a free pass to the museum.**

Visit Denver’s newest landmark. The Denver Art Museum’s Hamilton Building is an architectural work of art. Designed by Daniel Libeskind, it will change the way you experience art and architecture. Explore the Museum’s galleries showcasing a world-famous American Indian art collection, as well as art from around the world. At ARLIS/NA at Altitude: A Big DAM Party, entry to the Inspiring Impressionism exhibit will be provided.

Note: The North Building of the art museum will not be open on the night of the DAM party—so if you’d like to see The Quilts of Gee's Bend show or the collections in that building, you’ll need to make a separate visit. http://www.denverartmuseum.org/explore_art/temporaryExhibitionDetails/exhibitionId--168389/exhibitionType--Upcoming

**All registered attendees will be entitled to discounted admission to the MCA.**

Denver's first and only contemporary art museum opened in October 2007. Designed by David Adjaye, one of the leading architects in the world today, the MCA is actively pursuing LEED certification, which would make it the first contemporary art museum in the country to achieve such status.

Museo de las Americas

The Museo de las Americas is the only museum in the Rocky Mountain Region focusing on the art, history, and culture of Latinos in the Americas from ancient times to the present. See beautiful Spanish Colonial art from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Pre-Columbian objects, contemporary works and much more!
