Civic Center Park
Emily Foos: Civic Center Park hosts a variety of festivals and outdoor events during the spring and summer months. This is a photo from the 2011 Moonlight Classic. For those who have not been out to experience this one (as a rider or a bystander,) it is quite a sight & definitely something to check out! The event is typically held in July and is a 10-mile non-competitive late night bicycle ride that runs from around 8pm till about 2am. With the support of the City of Denver and the Denver Police Department, the course is closed to automobile traffic allowing participants to ride safely on city streets. It begins and ends at the Colorado State Capitol, taking cyclists through Denver’s historic neighborhoods, including the business district, Lower Downtown, Congress Park, and the Cherry Creek shopping district! Participants are benefitting the InnovAge Foundation to help increase awareness and support of programs that allow aging individuals to live independently and with dignity in their own homes and communities. #CapitolHill #GoldenTriangle #Uptown #LoDo #BakerNeighborhood #LincolnPark
Kalamath St & W 10th Ave
Emily Foos: Great piece of street art in an alley near 10th Ave & Kalamath St. It depicts one of my favorite authors, Charles Bukowski. The quote says, "We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.” #LincolnPark #StreetArt
Grace Gallery
Emily Foos: Most of the Lincoln Park area is characterized by a lot of public and street art. It seems to be everywhere you go! This is painted on the side of the building that houses the Grace Gallery (in the Santa Fe art district.) They've got some very cool public art there! #LincolnPark #StreetArt
Niza Knoll Gallery
Emily Foos: Many buildings around the Lincoln Park area and Santa Fe art district have security bars over their windows, but I think these (on the front window of the Knoll Gallery at 9th & Santa Fe) are by far the most creative! It is a very artistic and stylish take on something that is unfortunately very necessary in many neighborhoods these days. #LincolnPark #StreetArt
