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.

On Thursday, September 17, 2026, we invite you to an unforgettable celebratory garden party fundraiser featuring seasonal bites, curated cocktails, immersive artist activations outside on the forecourt, and reflections on the Museum’s impact and future. Enjoy art activations outside, including an installation by botanical dye textile artist Maki Teshima; an interactive installation by sculptor and potter Steven Meyers; ceramic works by Lucas Thomas; a performance by artists Tobias Fike and Matthew Harris; and a soundscape by DJ Fancy Matthew.

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 thousands of visitors each year for exhibitions, programs, and moments of creative discovery.

We look forward to celebrating with you! Tickets and sponsorships were on sale through September 11.
