Colorado Unveiled
It all begins with an idea.
CULTURAL EXPERIENCES
**Cultural Experiences:**
1. **Denver Art Museum:** Immerse yourself in the vibrant art scene of Denver at the Denver Art Museum, home to a diverse collection of Native American, Western, and contemporary art.
2. **Red Rocks Amphitheatre:** Witness a concert like no other at Red Rocks Amphitheatre, an iconic open-air venue nestled amidst towering red rock formations. Catch a live performance against the backdrop of a breathtaking Colorado sunset.
3. **Historic Mining Towns:** Step back in time and explore Colorado's historic mining towns, such as Telluride, Aspen, and Leadville. Wander the charming streets lined with Victorian-era buildings and learn about the state's rich mining heritage.
4. **Brewery Tours:** With over 400 craft breweries scattered across the state, Colorado is a mecca for beer lovers. Embark on a brewery tour and sample a diverse array of locally brewed beers, from hoppy IPAs to rich stouts.
5. **Meow Wolf and Casa Bonita:** Both of these have funny names and don’t exactly indicate what is in store for the consumer. Casa Bonita is an old Denver staple with a facelift from the South Park creators. It’s part restaurant, part show, part confusion that you don’t want to miss. Meow Wolf is an immersive art gallery that defies description. We cannot do it justice, you just have to see it for yourself.
