to Oct 11

Salida Art Walk

For more than 22 years in a row, visitors from throughout the Rocky Mountain region will converge on Salida, CO, in late June for the mountain town’s eagerly awaited “Salida ArtWalk” weekend.

Salida’s numerous galleries, businesses and restaurants will feature area artists, performers and crafts persons in three days of festive art and musical events, artist receptions, live demonstrations and entertainment of all kinds. Galleries will feature special shows by leading regional artists, and visitors can meet many of the artists in person and learn about their work.

A variety of ArtWalk fun abounds for the whole family: street events, gallery entertainment and demonstrations, and special events such as horse-drawn wagon rides, Salida Circus stilt walkers, theater productions, street musicians, symphonic concerts, and more. Many visitors also will want to avail themselves of the scenic mountain town’s considerable natural attractions, such as river rafting, fishing, hiking, bicycling, etc.

A popular highlight of ArtWalk is the silent auction of collectible “Miniature Masterpieces” — small, original works of art donated by local artists and prized by collectors. The bidding starts Friday with a reception at the riverside Salida SteamPlant Annex, and continues through Saturday until noon. Art patrons can place silent auction bids or claim “Buy It Now” favorites at uniquely affordable prices. Special thanks for this year’s Salida ArtWalk go to event sponsor High Country Bank, “Building Futures Together.”
