15 Years of the Still

Wildly Independent. Rooted in Denver.

Sponsor & Early Access – 5:30–6:30 p.m.
Main Event: 6:30–9:30 p.m.

Join the Clyfford Still Museum for an immersive golden-hour evening celebrating fifteen years of artistic independence, community connection, and cultural impact in Denver.

Since opening in 2011, the Still has become one of Denver’s defining cultural landmarks. Home to nearly all of Clyfford Still’s lifetime body of work, the Museum is internationally recognized while remaining deeply rooted in the local community, welcoming over 30,000 visitors each year for exhibitions, programs, and moments of creative discovery.

On Thursday, September 17, 2026, we invite you to join us in celebrating the Museum’s 15th Anniversary at an unforgettable evening featuring seasonal bites, curated cocktails, immersive artist activations, and reflections on the Museum’s impact and future.

We look forward to celebrating with you!
