Instead of just settling for the usual dinner-and-a-movie routine, why not dress it up a bit? Put on your best evening attire and get ready for truly classy (and classical) entertainment when you visit the Gateway Performing Arts Center. This impressive venue is the home of the Aurora Symphony Orchestra, and the group frequently performs various works by well-known composers year round. The Center is located on the campus of Gateway Senior High School in Aurora.

The Aurora History Museum prides itself in being the largest single provider of arts and culture in the city of Aurora. There are several well-recognized programs that the museum offers that include performing arts, fine arts, history, and public art, as well as special events and festivals. In addition to housing some of the city's rarest and most prized treasures and artifacts, the venue offers regularly scheduled films, lectures and various presentations that are designed to deepen the public's knowledge and appreciation for Aurora and the figures that have contributed to its long and varied history.

Nature lovers and fans of the great outdoors absolutely love the Morrison Nature Center, and for plenty of good reasons! This venue is the perfect avenue by which you can encounter some of Aurora's natural beauty. The Morrison Nature Center is located on Star K Ranch, which is over 200 acres and is part of the Sand Creek Regional Greenway. This Greenway is a 14-mile trail system that connects Aurora to Denver and Commerce City, and that long stretch of nature offers plenty of excellent opportunities to see some of the area's most amazing wildlife in its natural habitat.
