2520 LAR
FIRST FRIDAY
We host art exhibits every First Friday; of course, with the "Mexican Beer Virus" scare going on we will not be letting any large groups in our facility. Keep your eyes open for some fun art related activities & shows planned for upcoming months. If you absolutely feel the need to acquire some fabulous art, please feel free to call Brian & arrange a private viewing.
GIFT SHOP
Back by popular demand the girls' Blue Moon Corral pop-up boutique & gift shop... ask about it when you visit Brian's studio. Plenty of fun gifts are available... we're operating appointment only due to all the trending health hype.
Need to buy a gift? Call Brian @ 303-888-5512
FINE ART GALLERY
Find a wide variety of art to meet décor needs for modern & contemporary environments. Custom created artwork & a large selection of Brian's own modern abstract sculptural designs & photorealism creations are always available for purchase.
Peruse the variety of archival quality photographic art prints by Brian & Conrad. Any size print & museum quality framing are available custom order.
Call for an appointment to view and acquire paintings curated from select contemporary abstract artists.
WOOD & FURNITURE SHOP
Select from Jake's live edge slabs & Brian's personal supply of lumber. Have a project custom made by Brian (who built the most beautiful commercial bar in Denver) -or- DIY!
We're using this "social distancing" experiment to catch up on a backlog of projects. Now is a perfect time to get your deposit in & guarantee a spot on the fabrication schedule.
WORKING STUDIO TOURS
Light-speed growth & development has transformed our sleepy / industrial RiNo neighborhood into a vibrant entertainment playground & one of the country's most desirable destinations. We love the fact that Larimer Street is the hub of fun, fine dining, micro-brewing, music & specialty shopping in Denver!
With development, the opportunity to experience a genuine working art studio near downtown has become a rare commodity. Hence, 2520 LAR is offering "throw-back art studio tours". Nothing contrived about our facility... it is a genuine family owned building that we choose to operate as an "old school" working studio. Sure, much more money could be made creating a "happening destination" in a "hip" part of town... but is that really what life is all about?
Activities you might observe include the creation of sculpture, photorealistic painting, black & white film processing, the design & creation of furniture, live painting in action or a wide variety of other another creative endeavors. We offer the real artistic expression deal!
Call / text to arrange a tour: 303-888-5512.
Studio tours are free of charge but everyone needs to pay the ever increasing taxes... so we do ask that you shop our gift shop, fine art & lumber selections to allow us to keep the doors open for everyone!
25TH & LARIMER
Gateway to the Original RiNo Neighborhood
If it's worth being written about in the New York Times... you'll find it at 25th & Larimer!
Don't believe what those greedy idiots developing new buildings in the river's historic flood zone & cattle yards might tell you... this area is the real RiNo. Start your tour at the corner of 25th & Broadway where you will find the very first public art installation in the RiNo neighborhood: the "BLUE RINO" iron sculpture, commissioned by the city decades ago designating entry in the RiNo (River North) neighborhood.
Walk a short distance up Larimer to observe the beautiful mural art on the exterior wall of the Ramble Hotel at 25th & Larimer.
Also on the corner are some of the best restaurants in Denver & many offer curbside service during these trying times including: Work & Class, Super
Mega Bien & Portside. Of course, 2520 LAR / BCT Designs is operating as usual = by appointment.
WALL MURAL
We have added exterior wall murals to the front of our building. Painted by up-&-coming artist T-N-T (Tiffany Nicole Trybus - Denver School of Arts graduate), the free spirit design provides another beautiful photo op for RiNo street art tourists. Tiffany just completed the final art panel out front so walk by & check it out!
Like the look?... commission art created by Tiffany is available custom order,
message project details to Brian @ 303-888-5512.
