Colorado Black Arts Festival

Friday, July 10-12, noon-8 p.m., City Park West, Denver, 303-306-8672

The theme of this year’s Colorado Black Arts Festival is “Rock Steady,” fitting for an annual festival in its 29th year of bringing black music and culture to the Mile High City. This celebration is overflowing with representations of black culture, from the Boogaloo Celebration Parade to a Vintage Car Show. The multiple stages will feature local performers of blues, reggae, jazz and gospel music. On the arts and culture end, the festival will be the home of a sculpture garden, among other media created by local African American artists.
