To add to the experience, the Denver Arts Festival holds its annual premier event at Central Park's Conservatory Green neighborhoods. This area boasts some of the nation's highest median income and education levels. With over 50,000 people attending yearly, this festival is a must-see for anyone interested in the arts.

Check out the Denver Museum of Miniatures, Dolls, and Toys to explore an impressive collection of unique and classic toys. The exhibits showcase a wide range of antique dolls, miniature houses, trains, planes, cars, giant teddy bears, foreign toys, and much more, giving visitors an insight into the cultural significance of toys and their evolution over the years. The Museum staff uses the collection of over 20,000 objects to stage four significant exhibit changes each year, ranging from vintage Star Wars toys to artisan dollhouses and from exquisite antique dolls to well-loved toy soldiers. The objects collected from generations of Coloradans serve as an excellent stepping stone into art and history, and many items, like the Japanese Friendship Doll Miss Yokohama, make history more accessible and open the door to a new experience.
