Art on the Ave

In 2016, Colfax Ave launched Art on the Ave to bring more art to Colfax and create an open air art gallery along the corridor. The initiative kicked off with the painting of 13 utility boxes along the street, transforming dull, gray boxes to beautiful pieces of art. The project was funded by a grant from Denver’s Urban Arts Fund.

Local artists submitted their work and 13 winners were chosen – check out their masterpieces below. After the boxes were complete, Colfaxians voted for their favorites!

If you’re looking for a local artist to help you out with a project, we highly recommend the artists you see below. If you’d like to reach out to them for any potential work, contact us at info@colfaxave.com and we’ll put you in touch!
