WELCOME Here, creativity rises above the usual and ordinary.

Whether you enjoy exhibitions of contemporary art, or fun-filled festivals where you can touch the artwork and become a performer yourself. Whether you want to take a class, attend a talk, see a film, tour public artwork or watch artists at work—we have something to ignite your imagination.

Breckenridge Creative Arts serves artists, creatives, cultural enthusiasts, visitors and residents with a year-round schedule of creative happenings throughout our picturesque mountain town—from the concert hall, local theaters and galleries we manage, to the Breckenridge Arts District, a campus of quaint historic structures that offers a full calendar of classes, workshops and open studios.

Nestled in a cozy valley under spectacular snow-capped peaks, we invite you to join us in the exchange of ideas, to collaborate and revel in creative community. It is our sincere hope that you, too, will find inspiration in this most unique of places.

EXHIBITIONS Blue River Giuseppe Licari (Rotterdam, Netherlands) + Gretchen Marie Schaefer (Denver, Colorado) Gallery@OMH, Old Masonic Hall | FREE Aug 8-Sep 8, 2019 In the last century, humanity has become a natural force that forges and is forged by the landscape it creates.

Ancient Roots and Modern Altars Santiago Jaramillo (Denver, Colorado) Gallery@OMH, Old Masonic Hall | FREE Oct 11–Nov 24, 2019

Ancient Roots and Modern Altars is a visual journey from the sacred ancient images of the Aztec to modern Mexican/MexicanAmerican celebrations of Día de los Muertos.

Along with Jaramillo’s remix of past and present imagery, this exhibition holds Summit County community altars to honor loved ones that have passed on, and to honor ancestors and past Aztec dance leaders.
