The Maven Hotel in Denver’s Dairy Block, a microdistrict in Lower Downtown, worked with local RedLine Contemporary Art Center to commission seven new murals. RedLine is a Denver-based nonprofit arts organization that fosters education and engagement between artists and communities to create positive social change. The colorful murals welcome guests to each of the floors as they step off the elevator and are part of The Maven’s collection of more than 700 original paintings, sculptures, and photographs by Colorado artists. The hotel contains 2,100 square feet of flexible event space, on-site catering, and modern audiovisual equipment for planners to take advantage of.
Denver Milk Market, the Dairy Block’s food hall, has undergone an extensive update, including the addition of two new food concepts, a game room, large mural by Colorado-based artist Graham Carraway, and more. The new Bos Butcher & Deli offers tasty options like the Cowboy Burger and the B.B.L.T. (bacon, burrata, lettuce, and tomato), while Fuso is dishing up classic Italian hand-tossed pizzas and homemade pasta dishes. Denver Milk Market can be booked for private and semiprivate events for groups ranging from 24 to 450 guests.
