Denver Free Days 2018 (January – May)

Your pennies can save dollars. Literally, you contribute to the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District via a special regional tax that provides funding for art, music, theater, dance, zoology, botany, natural history and cultural history in the Denver Metropolitan Area. And in turn, these facilities give back to our community by offering FREE days – to experience these great cultural venues. If you consider the few pennies you give in tax and square that against admission for a family to some of these venues – you can literally save dollars!
