Art

For one weekend in June, and again in August, @smashinthesquare turns Fillmore Plaza into an open-air gallery walk, bringing together national fine artists, live music, sculpture, painting, photography, jewelry, mixed media and the rare kind of event that works just as well for serious collectors as it does for people who simply know a good Saturday when they see one. Think: brunch, iced coffee, a slow lap through the booths, a second lap because something caught your eye, a glass of wine, a conversation with the artist and, quite possibly, the piece you will spend the rest of the day mentally placing in your living room. Free, walkable and right in the heart of Cherry Creek North, Smash Fine Arts Festival returns June 6–7 and August 8–9 on Fillmore Plaza. Proudly presented with sponsors @interiordefine and @cherrycreekmag Read the full story at the link in bio. #CherryCreekMagazine #SmashFineArtsFestival #InteriorDefine #CherryCreekNorth #DenverArt

Some artists follow the rules. @ashleycollinsstudio built an entire career by breaking them.   A blue-chip contemporary artist and the first woman to break the $100K mark, Collins has become known for her powerful, large-scale works that are as physical as they are emotional. Her horses are not simply subjects. They are symbols of survival, motion, beauty, defiance and freedom.   In our latest issue, we step inside the world of Ashley Collins, where antique pages, raw canvas, paint, history and instinct collide to create something unmistakably her own.   Meet The Rein Maker in Cherry Creek Magazine.

Forget Me Not is giving May exactly what it needs: bubbles, blossoms and one very stylish reason to lose at the Derby. 🐎 First up, The Losers’ Ball on Saturday, May 2, starting at 5 PM. Consider it the unofficial Kentucky Derby after-party for anyone whose horse did not understand the assignment. Bring your losing tickets, your best betting sob story and your most gracious loser energy. There will be music, specialty cocktails, door prizes, giveaways and an ice luge, because losing should at least come with a proper drink. 🥤 Then on Mother’s Day, Forget Me Not opens early at noon for Bubbles & Blossoms, a refined little afternoon of champagne, fresh florals, delectable bites and aromatic pours. Henrietta’s Flower Truck will be on-site designing custom bouquets, making this the rare Mother’s Day plan that feels thoughtful, chic and conveniently involves a cocktail. 🥂 Two events. One very good excuse to get to @forgetmenotdenver #ForgetMeNotDenver #CherryCreekNorth #KentuckyDerbyParty #MothersDayDenver #DenverCocktails

We listen and we don’t judge 🥂 Meet our publisher @betsymarrcc! •Wants things to feel effortless, puts in an unholy amount of effort. •Says she doesn’t like being the center of attention. Throws extremely detailed parties in her own honor. •Thinks “make it chic” is clear, actionable feedback. •Won’t let my kids eat dye, but will serve champagne and cake at 2 p.m. on a school night if the tablescape is good enough. •Can spot bad copy instantly, cannot find her phone when it is in her hand. •Will spend real money on beautiful paper. Will ignore an insurance form for six months. •Cannot relax in an ugly room. #CherryCreekMagazine #MeetTheTeam #Denver #CherryCreekNorth #cherrycreek

Winter weddings have been getting away with green and white for far too long. For Sunset in the Gardens, we wanted to tell a different winter wedding story, one that felt warmer, moodier, and far more transportive. Set inside the Woodland Mosaic Solarium at Denver Botanic Gardens, the shoot unfolded in a palette of peach, terracotta, layered blues, soft greens, and candlelight, all inspired by the glow of a winter sunset. Conceptualized, designed, and expertly managed by Jenna Ritter of Marigold Events, the shoot brought together fashion, beauty, florals, cocktails, tablescape, favors, and cake in a way that felt immersive, intentional, and beautifully in sync. The result was romantic, editorial, and just unexpected enough to make the whole thing sing. Full vendor team tagged here and linked in stories.
