Head down to the historic Larimer Square to witness over 200 artists come together to create stunning chalk art on the streets during the Denver Chalk Art Festival. This event is open to everyone, from professionals to amateurs and families with children, and it aims to showcase artistic skills while promoting the arts scene in Denver. For those not artistically inclined, there will be live music, food, drinks, wine, and local brews to enjoy while admiring the unique art. The festival features five renowned artists who are true masters of their craft, having honed their skills over decades. Their awe-inspiring pieces are worth framing, but unfortunately, the street is too large to fit into a frame. Cherry Arts and the Denver Chalk Art Festival have a long-standing collaboration, having previously worked on outreach programs.
Are you looking for some water-themed fun and attractions? Look no further than Water World, America's largest water park. With over 50 water rides, slides, and attractions on over 70 beautifully landscaped acres, this park promises big thrills for the whole family. Water World is part of the Hyland Hills Park and Recreation District and first opened in August 1979 with the state's first two waterslides, the Bonzai Pipeline. The park is known as the "Water Coaster Capital of Colorado" and boasts three thrilling coasters, a giant wave pool, white-water rapids, speed slides, the world-famous Voyage to the Center of the Earth, and the new Alpine Springs area. Turtle Bay and Wally World are also welcome for tots, private bungalows and cabanas, free parking, and picnics.
Did you know that Opera Colorado is one of the driving forces of the city's arts and entertainment scene? Their high-quality performances have captivated audiences in Denver and beyond since 1981. They bring the craft of Opera to life in a way that only they can, with stories like Cinderella, The Marriage of Figaro, Otello, and Romeo and Juliet. Not only do they have mainstage performances at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House, but they also explore in-person and digital initiatives outside of the opera house. They present new works annually and have a nationally recognized Artist in Residence Program that trains the next generation of opera performers. Additionally, their education and community programs reach more than 45,000 students and adults annually. Opera Colorado truly is a gem in the world of Opera.
