The Denver Art
Museum (DAM) fires up its 2025 summer season with the annual
benefit dinner and auction, this year with an evolving theme
Uncorked: Delight at
the Denver Art Museum will debut Friday, June 6, 2025. This
event kicks off the summer with an array of entertainment,
elevated bites and beverages, a sumptuous dinner, as well as
an extraordinary live and silent auction featuring exclusive
artistic experiences
During dinner, an
inspiring program will celebrate the impact of the museum’s
Learning & Engagement programs. Funds raised sustain the
museum’s ability to build art and creativity experiences
together with communities, fostering well-being, belonging
and empathy for all.
For over 20 years,
Uncorked has become one of the DAM’s most beloved
fundraising events, raising critical support for Learning &
Engagement programs while building community. Informal yet
elevated, the event draws lovers of food, cocktails and
wine, and attracts both first-time and longtime museum
patrons and partners. Uncorked: Delight at the Denver Art
Museum is designed to celebrate the spirit of community and
connection that art inspires
“This year we wanted
to honor the creative spirit of the museum and the work of
our Learning & Engagement team with an updated identity for
this exciting fundraiser. For this year, our supporters can
expect a delightful evening in three parts celebrating
connection, creativity and community to benefit the museum’s
Learning & Engagement programs,” said Christoph Heinrich,
the Frederick and Jan Mayer Director of the Denver Art
Museum. “It is the work of this team that transforms the DAM
into an extravagant experience, providing vibrant, immersive
moments for our visitors that encourage the inner artist to
surface and create. We are grateful for our event co-chairs,
Jen and Alex Hardie and Craig and Nicole Harrison, for their
leadership and guidance as the event has grown and evolved.”
