WELCOME Discover the creative side of Breckenridge.

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.

Here, 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.
