4. Allen True’s Colorado West Takes over Denver March 1-28

Picture 27Colorado artist Allen Tupper True is invading Denver this March with dozens of works of art. The three-part exhibition illustrates all of True’s talent, with his illustrations at the Denver Public Library, 13 oil paintings at the Denver Art Museum (DAM) and three murals (along with several study murals) at the Colorado Historical Society. If this wasn’t enough, there’s even a walking tour of True’s murals throughout downtown Denver.

There’s so much True in Denver because he was one of the state’s premiere native-born artists and his work represents the everyday American West life in Colorado that is hard to find anywhere else. True’s work is a great way to get a glimpse of the past, as well as admire one of the state’s most respected artists.
