Continue east on 13th Ave. for half a block until you see the Denver Art Museum. The museum's two wings are located on both sides of 13th Ave. and connected by a pedestrian bridge.

The newest wing of the Denver Art Museum, designed by architect Daniel Libeskind, opened on October 7, 2006. The ultra-modern building stands in stark contrast to the medieval fortress that housed the older art museum.

Admission for Colorado residents is $10 for adults, $8 for students/seniors, and $3 for children. (Out-of-state visitors pay a surchage of $2 - $3 per ticket.)

Call 720-865-5000 for more information.
