Denver Art Museum

The Denver Art Museum is the most important art museum in Colorado's state capital, located near Civic Center Park in the city center. The institution was founded in 1893, though it didn't receive its current name until 1932. The museum complex consists of two striking buildings: the castle-like North Building, completed in 1971 by Gio Ponti, and the Hamilton Building. The latter was built from 2003 to 2006 to designs by architect Daniel Libeskind, who won the commission in an international selection process. Among the museum's most important collections is an outstanding holding of Native American art and craftwork, which you can admire during your visit.
