Student Art Buying Patrons

For decades, art lovers and collectors have visited the Cherry Creek Arts Festival to appreciate and purchase original work from hundreds of juried artists. The CherryArts Student Art Buying Program gives Colorado students the opportunity to have a similar experience, while teaching them about the business of art and enabling them to purchase original artwork for permanent installation in their schools.

This innovative and unique program enriches the lives of student participants and opens their eyes to the world of art. Your support makes this program possible!

Beyond the Festival: Let’s Keep Creating Together

Your support made this year’s Cherry Creek Arts Festival possible, a free celebration of art that welcomed thousands of visitors to discover, connect, and be inspired.

But our work doesn’t stop there. Thanks to donations like yours, CherryArts brings year-round arts outreach programs and art experiences to Colorado students and communities.
