Artist Opportunities at DEN

Exhibitions

The DEN Arts program curates exhibitions and accepts proposals for temporary displays featuring local and regional artists and cultural themes that create a sense of place for travelers, staff, and the greater DEN community. Artists and organizations are welcome to submit proposals via an online platform for 3-6 month rotations in a variety of locations throughout the airport.

Exhibition proposals are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Not all exhibitions are approved for display at DEN. The DEN Arts team will notify approved proposers via email up to 6 months after submission. Please review DEN’s Exhibition Policy below.

Exhibitions

The DEN ARTS Program hosts multiple locations for rotating exhibitions for travelers and staff to experience arts and culture of Colorado when they pass through the airport. DEN ARTS exhibitions are typically Colorado themed and feature artists and organizations that reside within the state.

The exhibitions curator organizes rotating displays, exhibitions and experiences for our passenger’s campus wide. The rotating exhibitions programs currently exists in Ansbacher Hall (prior to Airport Office Building), the Airport Office Building Lobby, A Gates Y-Juncture and Mezzanine and C Gates Mezzanine. Additional spaces are utilized as opportunities arise. Exhibition topics are developed by the curator in collaboration with museums, non-profit organizations and individuals to present the diverse art, history and culture of Colorado. We are currently updating our formal proposal process, but in general we look for work samples (a pdf of available artwork to display, or a link to a website or digital portfolio) and a written proposal that addresses the theme and how your work creates a sense of place for travelers and staff.
