Denver transforms into a large open-air gallery with the much-anticipated Cherry Creek Arts Festival, which this year takes place July 4–6, 2025, in Cherry Creek North. This vibrant event is one of the most important and respected art festivals in the United States and promises three days full of creativity, music, and fun for all ages.

Organized by CherryArts, a nonprofit organization committed to providing access to art and art education in Colorado, the festival brings together 260 juried artists, including outstanding local talents such as Austin Baskett (Lafayette, Colorado) and Arturo Garcia (Littleton, Colorado). The works include painting, sculpture, ceramics, photography, jewelry, digital art, and much more.

Throughout the weekend, visitors can enjoy live music, free dance performances such as Cleo Parker Robinson Dance, activities for children at the Creation Station, cultural performances, and interactive zones. In addition, food lovers will enjoy food trucks, the popular “gourmet alley,” and unique tasting experiences.

Free event

Admission to the festival is completely free, making it the perfect opportunity to explore art, support artists, and enjoy an unforgettable day with family and friends. Beyond being an exhibition, the Cherry Creek Arts Festival aims to bring art closer to everyone, fund educational programs, and promote emerging artists.

Thanks to this mission, it has received international recognition such as the prestigious Gold Grand Pinnacle Award from the IFEA, which celebrates excellence in festivals worldwide. We invite you to learn more about the participating artists and all the events happening over these three days.
