CRUSH WALLS

CRUSH celebrates art, urban beautification, creativity, and culture by enriching the community through an arts festival like no other. CRUSH believes public art leads to urban development and an improved community. Public art can be a catalyst for safety, cleanliness, curb-appeal and creativity. Centered around empowering artists’ creativity, the CRUSH is committed to reflecting and diversifying t

he urban landscape and the unique voice of the community. The RiNo (River North) Art District defines itself as a community "Were Art is Made” and CRUSH celebrates the craft of graffiti and street artists who bring life to Denver’s walls while maintaining the unique cultural identity in this rapidly evolving community. CRUSH transforms streets and alleys into open-air galleries allowing. CRUSH raises awareness of the cultural significance and importance of art to low-income youth and multi-cultural groups which may not have the opportunity to experience otherwise. Additionally, CRUSH offers art education through this urban landscape. The CRUSH organization serves as a forum for community engagement and creative expression, inviting locals and visitors to engage in the rich history and forward-thinking public art.
