Art-i-fax: Generations | Colfax Ave. Street Party
September 8, 2018 @ 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Join the Colfax Ave Business Improvement District for the third annual free Art-i-fax street party and celebrate Colfax! Once again we’ll fill a pop-up public plaza at the intersection of Park Ave and Colfax with live music, local food, fun activities, interactive entertainment, and incredible art.
RSVP on our website to receive a complimentary drink courtesy of Argonaut Wine & Liquor! Claim your FREE drink at the “tickets” link above or visit https://www.art-i-fax.com/events/art-i-fax-generations/form
This year’s theme is Generations, where we’ll celebrate both the history of Colfax as well as provide programming for all ages. The party is part celebration, part demonstration.
What kinds of things can you expect? Enjoy food from various Colfax eateries, including The Goods and Spices Cafe. And, don’t miss the Voodoo Doughnut Cake Walk! 30 Miles of Crazy Comics‘ Karl Christian Krumpholz and handmade cards from The Gathering Place will make a return appearance, while Historic Denver will give mini history tours. We’ll offer live music from country darlings Chella & The Charm and dope Denver lyricist Connor Ray, plus a fashion show from Studio Colfax. You can even get your workout in with Green Door Fitness! Kids can enjoy story time with some well-read drag queens, plus a special visit from Denver Public Library‘s Wheelie the Book Bike. Pets are welcome too; visit the Peaceful Touch Pet Salon and Massage paw painting station to make art out of your dog’s paw prints.
For the second year in a row, we’ll be temporarily closing Park Ave from Colfax to Humboldt. Come to Art-i-fax and let us know what kind of future programming you’d like to see in a space like this. We’ll also be honoring a couple of very special community members with the 2018 “Characters of Colfax” awards. Admission is FREE, so RSVP via our website to get a free drink too!
