Annual Member and Donor Celebration

We hope to see you there! 

This 1780 Mexican Colonial House is located near the Stockman Collections Center. It was donated to the Society in 2001 by the Denver Art Museum and Althea Revere and accessioned into the permanent collections as catalog number 2001.069.

Local santero Luis Tapia and his son Sergio reconstructed the pitched-roof wooden house as if it were an oversized Lego set using a system of marks that helped with placing the pieces together. The building is fifteen feet tall with a square floorplan that is twenty-five feet wide on each side and it sits on a raised platform.
