Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center, Art museum and performance center in Colorado Springs, United States.
The Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center is a three-story building on West Dale Street that houses art galleries, performance spaces, and an art school. The layout lets visitors see exhibitions and attend live performances, with all these functions integrated into one building.
The building opened in 1936 at its current location, building on foundations from a 1919 art academy that operated in the Broadmoor area. This evolution shows how early art education in the region developed into a larger cultural institution.
The art collection features works by Georgia O'Keeffe and other American modernists from the 20th century displayed throughout the galleries. These pieces sit alongside Native American art, creating conversations between different artistic traditions that visitors encounter as they move through the space.
The center opens Tuesday through Saturday from 10 AM to 7:30 PM and Sundays from 10 AM to 5 PM, with reduced rates for military members, seniors, and students. It helps to check what exhibitions and performances are running during your visit to make the most of your time.
The Bemis School of Art has operated within the center for over 90 years, offering year-round classes for people of all skill levels. This long-standing presence means beginners work alongside experienced artists in the same spaces, creating an active learning community.
