The Elati Garden First Friday Art Fair(s)

Elati Garden is a community garden and part of the Denver Urban Garden system. It has been my second summer home, sanctuary and haven for four wonderful summers now. The community surrounding this garden is talented and vibrant,,,thus my idea to start a First Friday Art Fair.

Only two block from the bumping Santa Fe art district, which comes alive on first Fridays, the garden is now the perfect starting point for an evening of savory food, inspiring art, good people and jamming vibrations.

Bringing people together in the name of art, community and ethically grown food is success to me!!!
