- Price
- Free
Aurora doesn't have a downtown gallery row, but the Aurora Cultural Arts District comes close on the first Friday of every month, when The People's Building throws open its doors along East Colfax for free.
The October 2, 2026 edition runs 5 to 7 PM at 9995 East Colfax Avenue, with the gallery and bar open to neighbors, artists, and visitors passing through. No tickets or RSVP required.
It's a recurring monthly series, so the specific hook is the October date and free admission window, not a one-off headliner.
