Dairy Block is pleased to unveil Downpour, an immersive art experience now floating above Blake’s Passage, the pedestrian walkway that leads from the center of activated Alley towards Blake Street.
Dairy Block hired Denver architectural firm Davis Partnership Architects to improve pedestrian traffic in Blake’s Passage. Lisa Bartlett led the lighting design team at Davis and created a lighting concept called Downpour, which features nearly 400 programmable color-changing spheres that playfully imitate a rain of colored light.
The Downpour experience light installation is open to all – the lights are on daily from 30 minutes before sunset until Sunday – Thursday at midnight and Friday and Saturday until 2am.

CAE’s 2023 Teen Exhibit features 57 2D and 3D artworks selected from nearly 200 submissions by 13-18 year old artists from across the Denver area.

Most artworks are for sale, but some are for portfolios tied to professional art schools and universities.
