Description: Rediscover the 7th floor of the Denver Art Museum! After closing the 7th floor in 2004 for renovations, the museum will open nine refurbished galleries in mid-February featuring historic Western American art.

Around 155 paintings and sculptures created before 1950 will be on display in the exhibit, Creating the West in Art. Stroll through scenes of stampeding horses, victorious battles and feel the energy of a bucking bronco while you gaze upon unspoiled Western territory. It's not every day you get to admire the works of Charles Marion Russell and Frederic Remington.

In addition, the Berger Western Discovery Library will reopen so visitors of all ages can learn, play and remember the West. Hang out in the leather sofas and surround yourself with pillows while you skim through an extensive collections of books, listen to western music at iPod listening stations, play with vintage cameras and share a laugh while dressing up in costumes.

Get in touch with your Western heritage and visit the new 7th floor of the DAM!

Admission to the 7 th floor is included in the General Admission ticket price.
