Denver’s soul pulsates with artistic expression, and nowhere is this more evident than on its vibrant street murals.

From towering canvases in RiNo to hidden gems tucked away in alleys, these artworks transform ordinary walls into extraordinary experiences. Whether you’re an art aficionado or simply seeking a unique adventure, Denver’s diverse mural landscape promises something for everyone.

Landmarks with a Twist:

  • “I Want You for the U.S. Army” (Union Station): Keith Haring’s iconic WWII propaganda poster gets a modern makeover on the side of Union Station. This instantly recognizable piece injects pop culture into a historical landmark.
  • “Cervantes” (Cervantes Masterpiece Theatre): Immerse yourself in the fantastical world of Don Quixote with this sprawling mural by Michael Garcia. Admire the intricate details and vibrant colors that bring the literary hero to life.
  • “Crush” (Dairy Block Alley): This captivating piece by Iona Roze depicts a woman lost in thought, her vibrant clothing mirroring the surrounding flowers. Find it tucked away in a charming alleyway for a dose of hidden beauty.

Celebrating Community:

  • “Love is Love” (Highland): This powerful mural by Gabe Gabe reflects the inclusivity and diversity of Denver’s LGBTQ+ community. Its rainbow hues and heartfelt message create a space for acceptance and celebration.
  • “Murals of Resilience” (Five Points): Take a self-guided tour through the Five Points neighborhood and witness a collection of murals by various artists. Each piece tells a story of struggle, hope, and the enduring spirit of the community.
  • “Denver is Home” (RiNo): Created by a collective of artists, this large-scale mural depicts diverse individuals woven together, symbolizing the welcoming and inclusive nature of the city.

Artistic Adventures:

  • RiNo Art District: Embark on a mural marathon in this haven for street art. From thought-provoking pieces to whimsical creations, discover hidden gems on every corner. Don’t miss The Great Wall, a rotating showcase of works by renowned and emerging artists.
