CBCA Members are invited to check out the new expanded and reimagined campus at the Denver Art Museum, including eight levels of its iconic Gio Ponti-designed Lanny and Sharon Martin Building (formerly referred to as the North or Ponti Building), and the new Anna and John J. Sie Welcome Center.

CBCA members can request up to two complimentary adult tickets. Children under 18 are free at the Denver Art Museum, but will need to register to help manage capacity. CBCA Members will check in with CBCA to receive their free tickets between 1:00 and 3:00 pm, and then will have the rest of the day to explore the museum.

About the Denver Art Museum Renovation

Designed by Italian architect Gio Ponti and Denver-based James Sudler Associates, the Martin Building first opened in 1971. Its seven-story silhouette is one of the first-ever high-rise art museums and is the only completed building in North America by the renowned Italian modernist Gio Ponti. On the occasion of the Martin Building’s 50th anniversary, it has been fully restored and renovated throughout, which includes realizing Ponti’s original vision for the 7th floor to span both towers, expanding gallery space, and offering visitor access to stunning city and mountain views.

The building showcases the museum’s encyclopedic collections, including acclaimed works from the architecture and design, Asian art, Indigenous arts of North America, Northwest Coast and Alaska Native, European and American art before 1900, Latin American and art of the ancient Americas, photography, textile art and fashion, and Western American art collections, while putting its nationally recognized educational programming at the center of the campus.
