Arts and Culture
The City of Arvada is committed to providing arts and cultural events throughout the year and supporting and showcasing art in public places.
Dedicated on July 4, 1976, the Arvada Center was founded through a unique collaboration between the citizens and government of Arvada. Since its inception, the Arvada Center has offered year-round concerts and performances in theater and dance; art exhibitions; a history museum; and classes in ceramics, dance, writing, acting, and the visual and musical arts. With more than half of its patrons coming from outside of Jefferson County, the Arvada Center’s influence extends beyond its name, serving more than 350,000 visitors each year.
