Jen SiddallMay 17, 2010DAM has a fantastic contemporary collection- especially if you're interested in the past thirty years. and though they rotate the exhibition, the things on view are always choice.
Katy BurleyMarch 14, 2012Whatever you do, do NOT parking in the parking structure!!! Use the 5 hour parking meters or surface lots. You could spend 30-45 minutes trying to get OUT of the structure's horrendous line!
rebecca ElmoreMarch 22, 2013Love that the first Saturday of every month is FREE general admission :) A must see!
Christo dKJune 6, 2013Beware these doors. Inside there is no sign to indicate that this is an emergency exit. (Perhaps part of a relational aesthetics piece where you're meant to leave with a sense of shame for trying).
Lisa AxtmanFebruary 14, 2018The South American Religious Collection is great, as is the precolonial art.
Matthew BrewsterAugust 20, 2014Great art with great prices and some free days! The art is usually changed out.
Diana TrettinSeptember 2, 2016Not as much fun as the Denver Museum of Contemporary Art, but the Final Friday program was fun.
Cody MarshallMay 15, 2013The DAM hosts a large collection of contemporary art and historic American Indian artifacts.
If you have kids, be sure to stop by the painting studio on the first floor to make some art.
Jordan WhiteApril 8, 2016I brought my class here & the guard on the Asian floor was a jerk. They weren't running, yelling or touching the art but he chewed them out for touching a WALL. It made us totally uncomfortable.
Don't forget to bring your kids to floor 4 spanish art North building. There are two eye spy games on this floor and a large puzzle in pre-Colombian art area
Eric TigreDecember 14, 2011Denver Art Museum's soaring geometry beckons visitors like a gem to its crisp architectural profile. Stop in soon to visit Robert Adams photography retrospective which ends Jan 1, 2012. Read more

Michael FaasAugust 5, 2013Closed on Mondays, frustrating to know I'm within 100 feet of the finest display of Rothko in recent years.
John GavinaMarch 8, 2011Take the stairs instead of the elevators especially on free days. Free days run on the first Saturday of every month.

Sasha MeyerowitzOctober 7, 2011Western Horizons: contemporary realist landscapes. Great range of works and sharp perceptions.
Alex DobyanFebruary 10, 2015Enjoyed it, but I'm not sure it's worth the price for out-of-state residents.- so in a few months the next exhibition for DAM after Being Van Gogh will be O'keeffe. as in Georgia
- There is an even larger collection of pre-Colombian pieces in the study section of the north 4th floor
- As of 3.26.11 there is a Mary Cassatte and a Renior on floor 6. Come check it out!!!
Ashley PritchardJune 21, 2011Look for all of Clare Twomey's "Red Dust" pieces throughout the museum. They are hidden in unexpected places for the Marvelous Mud exhibit.- Jeremy SlickMarch 2, 2013Hey Colorado.Residents: Take advantage of the Free Day.admission every 1st Saturday of the month.
Head into the Lower Level of the Hamilton Building and check out Herbert Bayer's pieces. A transplant from the Bauhaus and an amazing graphics/painter, all collected at the DAM.
