Celebrate Spring with a canvas of color in the River North Art District. Over 40 locations in RiNo -- the Denver district ‘Where Art is Made' -- will open their doors for Plant Yourself at RiNo, A Spring Tour on May 17 from 11am – 5pm. The event is free and features the best of RiNo.

For the Spring Tour, art spots along the route will be clearly marked by artist-created planters and gardens. Artists will transform their industrial surroundings into oases of unexpected beauty, offering an artful adventure for families, couples or individuals. Along with innovative local art, RiNo visitors will enjoy commemorative pins and complimentary garden seeds.

RiNo is please to announce our new FEED THE RINO campaign.

The River North Art District is one of the closest neighborhoods in proximity to Downtown Denver. The combination of the location and the creative personality of the neighborhood are leading to increasing development. Several projects are under construction,others are in the process of being designed and RiNo welcomes the new opportunities. 

As advocates for the neighborhood and its residents, the River North Art District strongly encourages developers to consider the personality of RiNo as you move forward with any building project.

Without the creative people who help to make the neighborhood vital, your development risks losing much of its value and certainly much of its charm. For this reason, we have developed a set of RiNo Voluntary Standards for Developers.

Each month we will promote the developers that follow these standards in the RiNo Crow.
