Denver Art Museum – First Saturday

// November 9th, 2009 // 1 Comment » // Uncategorized

We at OSSUMNISS took advantage of the cultural offerings in Denver this past Saturday.  It was First Saturday and the Denver Art Museum (DAM) was open to visitors gratis from 10 am – 5 pm.  It was also Celebrate Denver Arts Week thus 10 museums were open for free from 5 pm – 10 pm (including DAM).  If you don’t go on a free day admission is only $10 for CO Residents and yearly membership for families is $70.

FYI Denver is great with cultural affairs opportunities even if you don’t have much cash.  The Scientific and Cultural Facilities District works to offer free and severely discounted opportunities to residents.  Get to know their website and check their calendar.    Also the Denver Office of Cultural Affairs has a 2-for-1 ticket program for a myriad of events, see their weekly updates.

Anyway, DAM was fun.  We arrived to find a bunch of kids climbing all over a a broom and dustpan sculpture they were not supposed to climb.  Obviously how can one resist?  It looks like you are supposed to be on it.
