Canvases in the Cañon Art Show

The Friends of Cheyenne Cañon’s annual Canvases in the Cañon Art Show takes place on Saturday, August 20, 2016 from 10 to 4 at the Helen Hunt Falls Visitor Center in North Cheyenne Cañon Park.

Artists from around the region will display and sell their work, inspired by the natural wonders of the Cañon in particular and the Pikes Peak region in general. Included are pottery, acrylics, watercolors and photography.

Admission is free and everyone is encouraged to purchase art for friends, family, and home or office. A portion of the proceeds from art sales directly benefits North Cheyenne Cañon Park and its educational programs.

The Art Show and related activities are unique experiences in a setting that has inspired historic artists such as Charles Craig and modern day residents such as Pard Morrison and Cono Pitinga. Some events are outdoors and may be adjusted or cancelled due to inclement weather.

Our show coincides with the 131st Anniversary of the Park. Don’t miss this event if you enjoy nature and art! It’s a perfect family event with guided hikes, educational programs and other fun activities.

Sponsored by the Friends of Cheyenne Cañon and the City of Colorado Springs, Parks Recreation and Cultural Services.
