CVA is excited to bring back the Art + Action Lab Intern Fashion Show! Our high school interns have been working since October on fashion designs inspired by themes that matter most to each of them. Working alongside creative professionals in the field, the interns have gained the knowledge and skills to pull off fantastic designs. Last year’s fashion show was such a success that we had to do it again!

First Friday Art Walk
Art District on Santa Fe First Friday Art Walk
First Friday of every month, 6-8pm
The First Friday Art Walks are the signature event of Denver’s Art District on Santa Fe. All year round, rain or shine, the District comes alive on the first Friday of each month as thousands of visitors descend upon Santa Fe Drive to view art from hundreds of artists in galleries, studios, co-ops, upstairs, downstairs, in alleys, on the street—everywhere!
On First Fridays, CVA always has something fun happening, whether it’s vendors and cultural partners in the parking lot, fantastic exhibitions in the galleries, or art-making activities in the classroom, there’s something for everyone!
