Galleries and Exhibitions
Galleries at the Center
10,000 square feet of exhibition space focused on representing artists from Colorado and the western region - all free and open to the public.
Visiting the Galleries
The Arvada Center Galleries hold the health and safety of our visitors, staff, and artists as the highest priority. To allow for recommended distancing and to monitor the number of people in our galleries, we are using a reservation system for our spring exhibitions Wood.Works and Carley Warren: Three Pieces.
Even with a reservation system, the Arvada Center Galleries remain FREE to the public. This free access is made possible through the support of our generous patrons and donors - thank you!
Before You Visit

Seeing the Exhibition
