Announcing the Return of the Winter West Symposium!
The Coors Western Art Exhibit & Sale is also excited to announce the return of the Winter West Symposium, now an annual event in conjunction with the show. This half-day program, featuring artist demonstrations, panel discussions, and brunch, will celebrate the exceptional talent of participating artists and offer guests a deeper connection to the world of Western art.
The original Winter West, once held at the Denver Art Museum alongside the Coors Show, has been reimagined and expanded. As the Coors Show continues to grow, so too, does our commitment to offering engaging programs for the community. With an eye toward our move to a new facility in 2026, the Winter West Symposium is set to become an integral part of our annual celebration.
The Winter West Symposium will take place on Tuesday, January 7th, 2025, at CSU Spur’s Hydro Building in Denver, and will feature artist demonstrations by Raj Chaudhuri, Jennifer Johnson, and Whitney Gardner, followed by a panel discussion with Brandon Bailey, Lisa Gordon, and others. After brunch and opening remarks by the Coors team, esteemed artist, Bill Anton, will deliver an exclusive talk on his life and work.
Tickets for the Winter West Symposium are available for $65, or guests can purchase a $400 package that includes admission to the Blue Jean Preview on Monday, January 6, the Winter West Symposium on Tuesday, January 7, and the Red Carpet Reception later that evening.
Join us at the Confluence Theater at CSU Spur’s Hydro Building, located at 4777 National Western Drive, Denver, CO 80216, from 10 AM to 1 PM for an exciting and inspiring day of Western art.
The Coors Western Art Exhibit supports the National Western Scholarship Trust. All proceeds from donations, ticket, table, and art sales fund more than 120 students each year studying agriculture, rural medicine, and veterinary sciences.
