    Some of the art
    Emily L.

    I visited here before the pandemic so it has been a while. But my mom and I loved it! We enjoy unique experiences and this was certainly it. We were the only ones we saw the entire time in there which honestly added to the experience. It gave us the opportunity to really enjoy a the art and have fun with it. At the time we visited it was free which was a nice surprise. Highly recommend visiting and supporting this collection.

    This is the entrance to the building, to the right of T-mobile store. Go up the elevators to the 5th floor and follow the signs!

    I almost don't want to write a review for this museum because I'm selfish and I want to keep it all to myself. I cannot believe this only has 8 reviews on yelp because this is one of the better museums in Denver. This is a hidden gem that needs the recognition that it deserves! First of all, it's FREE to the public, and has a free audio tour that you can take on your phone while you walk around (bring some earphones!). It's easy to jump on and off the phone at each station so you can hang up and take photos. I highly suggest you take the audio tour- it takes approx. 45 minutes to an hour to get through with the audio tour. I was there for an hour and a half because I took so many photos. They let you do so as long as the flash is turned off on your device. Every piece of artwork is so funny, unique, and incredibly interesting! Each piece leaves you there in awe of the beauty and sometimes startled by the artwork! I found myself chuckling at quite a few pieces and in shock from others. Each room is a different surprise, try not to ruin it for yourself by looking ahead. Take your time and listen to the audio on each art piece, they all tell a story. A few of the pieces are 'interactive' as well! ***TIP: Do yourself a favor and do NOT look up photos on Instagram or yelp before you go (hence why I'm only posting photos of the building and hours). TRUST ME ON THIS. Every room was a fun surprise and the thrill factor would be gone if you look it up.

    This place is a sparse yet interesting contemporary art museum on the 5th floor of the old Colorado Building. Located on the 16th street mall, this free museum has unique installations that are both functional and interactive. The fifth floor is broken up into rooms and each art installation has its own room, sometimes its not known if what is in the room is the actual piece of art, as in the room that just has an old answering machine from the 80's sitting on the floor in the corner with a blinking light, but in many other rooms the art pieces are very big. When going be sure to check out both halves of the museum since the curators office is in the middle.

    Finally found this place, was super excited, to see a sign saying they won't be open until February 2020...

    What a wholly unexpected and hidden gem right in the heart of Denver! A really impressive, odd, exciting, humorous, and innovative collection of works, outsider art, and fine art in a totally unique and interesting historic office setting. To boot, it's totally free and self guided. Highly recommend a stop if you're in the area, just a few blocks walk from the convention center and right off the 16th Street strip. It is a little confusing to find at first and the current construction doesn't help but it's a wonderful place.

    I had to go here for school work. My teacher described it as going down the rabbit hole ans a maze of artwork. I already love art so I was very intrigued from that point. I found some of the exhibits very cool and some interactive. Some were not my taste but there was a very cool one that was a car made out of cardboard and glue. It looked so realistic it seem like you could drive it down the street. Incredible car! Overall experience was great.... I left smiling and talking about the pieces in the collection.

On the day that I visited there was a special art event. A ticket included visiting all 3 buildings, and making an art project!

The museum is so awesome you'll probably want to go back soon so do what I did.... Become a member! They have many different memberships for individuals or families. I chose the dual membership for 2 people and it's $95. It has many benefits so check it out online. Parking can be difficult and it requires paying for parking unless you are smart and use public transportation. That way you can have relax and avoid driving downtown. I love this museum and the ability to take the local train and be dropped off by the free 16th Street bus.

You have to park in the street. They do give you a free coin to store your belongings in a locker for the duration of your stay. The museum itself is kinda small. Although it has 3 floors, there's only 1-2 exhibitions per floor. The rooftop is also small & the outdoor city views are sort of limiting. So in general, you can easily complete the whole museum in a matter of 30-60 min tops. They feature rotating exhibitions. So every few months or so, the theme is different & you can come back to see totally new artwork. It's really nice that they feature local artists that are Denver based and display their ideas & artistry to the world. I really enjoyed spending some time in the afternoon walking around & admiring some of the art. It was definitely a good way to kill time & spend time indoors away from the heat/cold.

If you get a chance to attend their events, they are really fun and worth the price of admission. I also really enjoy their ever rotating art collection. They have some really great local and minority artists, but what really tugged on my heart this time was the exhibit of teen artists. Absolutely adore seeing kids express themselves through art, and their statements about their art were truly eloquent. Parking downtown sucks, as usual, but if you come on a Sunday you might be able to find a metered spot for free. I'm sure I'll be back, most likely for an event! I know I'll be recommending their teen program to some of my more artistic students.

Designed specifically to display Clyfford Still's work, this "small" museum (as many of my museum colleagues would call it) is actually quite large - enough for a few hours of wondering... The building itself is a beautiful and perfectly complements the art collection's scale, themes, and colors. I was told it has over 3000 pieces (over 90%) of the artist's works; and he believed the best way to experience an artist's work was by seeing it all in one place. It was indeed a great experience to be submerged in such an environment -- you feel so much more who he was and what he wanted to express. Must give this "small" museum a BIG applause! Everything was nicely done and it was a great pleasure to visit. AND, their website (https://clyffordstillmuseum.org/) is absolutely amazing! I've seen many museums' websites and theirs is the first one where I saw "Accessibility Adjustments" tool (look for the small person in a circle at the lower left corner) that helps people with different challenges.
