Lisa AxtmanFebruary 14, 2018The South American Religious Collection is great, as is the precolonial art.
Don't forget to bring your kids to floor 4 spanish art North building. There are two eye spy games on this floor and a large puzzle in pre-Colombian art area
Jen SiddallMay 17, 2010DAM has a fantastic contemporary collection- especially if you're interested in the past thirty years. and though they rotate the exhibition, the things on view are always choice.
Jordan WhiteApril 8, 2016I brought my class here & the guard on the Asian floor was a jerk. They weren't running, yelling or touching the art but he chewed them out for touching a WALL. It made us totally uncomfortable.
Christo dKJune 6, 2013Beware these doors. Inside there is no sign to indicate that this is an emergency exit. (Perhaps part of a relational aesthetics piece where you're meant to leave with a sense of shame for trying).
Michael FaasAugust 5, 2013Closed on Mondays, frustrating to know I'm within 100 feet of the finest display of Rothko in recent years.
Eric TigreDecember 14, 2011Denver Art Museum's soaring geometry beckons visitors like a gem to its crisp architectural profile. Stop in soon to visit Robert Adams photography retrospective which ends Jan 1, 2012. Read more
rebecca ElmoreMarch 22, 2013Love that the first Saturday of every month is FREE general admission :) A must see!
Ashley PritchardJune 21, 2011Look for all of Clare Twomey's "Red Dust" pieces throughout the museum. They are hidden in unexpected places for the Marvelous Mud exhibit.
Diana TrettinSeptember 2, 2016Not as much fun as the Denver Museum of Contemporary Art, but the Final Friday program was fun.
Cody MarshallMay 15, 2013The DAM hosts a large collection of contemporary art and historic American Indian artifacts.
If you have kids, be sure to stop by the painting studio on the first floor to make some art.

Ivana GonzalezMarch 21, 2013You can get an individual membership for $50 which includes unlimited free general admission for a year.
CloverJuly 7, 2010After going to the King Tut exhibit, take the kids to the area where they get to dress up as pharaohs and make Egyptian collars. Cute and fun.
Head into the Lower Level of the Hamilton Building and check out Herbert Bayer's pieces. A transplant from the Bauhaus and an amazing graphics/painter, all collected at the DAM.- Ashley PritchardJune 24, 2011Wish I had an iPhone to download the DAM's new app DAM_SCOUT. Look for a QR code to scan and uncover hidden content.
John GavinaMarch 8, 2011Take the stairs instead of the elevators especially on free days. Free days run on the first Saturday of every month.
Alex DobyanFebruary 10, 2015Enjoyed it, but I'm not sure it's worth the price for out-of-state residents.
- Fillipino Lippi had trained under Botticelli. A Lippi hangs next to a 3/4 self portrait done by Botticelli on floor 6. Come see it!!!
