Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center

Frommer's Review

The center's permanent collection includes works by Georgia O'Keeffe, John James Audubon, John Singer Sargent, Charles Russell, Albert Bierstadt, Nicolai Fechin, and other famed painters and sculptors, as well as a world-class collection of American Indian and Hispanic works. Opened in 1936, the center also houses a 450-seat performing-arts theater, a 32,000-volume art-research library, the Bemis School of Art, a tactile gallery for those who are visually impaired, and a delightful sculpture garden. Changing exhibits showcase local collections as well as touring international exhibits. Designed by renowned Santa Fe architect John Gaw Meem, the Art Deco-style building reflects Southwestern mission and Pueblo influences. Allow 1 to 3 hours.
