DAVA | Downtown Aurora Visual Arts
DAVA’s community art center is an island of creativity in Aurora, Colorado. Every student that walks through our doors experiences the transformative power of high quality out-of-school programs that develop art, social, and life skills. Free year-round programming engages kids from pre-school through high school.
THE PEOPLE’S BUILDING GALLERY
9995 E Colfax Ave
Aurora, CO 80010
The history of The People’s Building’s is as dynamic as Aurora itself. Once a ski shop and then a rent-to-own furniture store, it was acquired by the City of Aurora’s Office of Urban Renewal and Redevelopment. They invested over two million into the building’s revitalization and it is now utilized as a gallery and a flexible event space for cultural events, workshops, meetings, independent artists, musicians, dancers, and event planners.
ART IN PUBLIC PLACES
Aurora’s Art in Public Places Program enhances the quality of life in Aurora as high-quality neighborhoods and public spaces are developed and maintained. Locally and nationally renowned artists have created 300 individual pieces to enhance the city’s public spaces with works of art ranging from outdoor sculptures and murals to functional works integrated into the architecture.
