About Masks

This is the 16th year of the Masks Exhibition and Benefit. The annual exhibition is a crowd favorite that over the years has raised more than $1.6 million dollars to support the museum’s mission. During that time, Masks artists, most of whom live in Northern Colorado, have designed and donated over 2,750 masks. Each year has been an exciting journey as the unadorned ceramic forms leave the museum and return as an amazing collection of unique masks.

Since 2003, Masks has attracted both professional artists, whose creativity is their economic mainstay, and recreational artists, who respond to their need to express their creativeness in ingenious styles.

The annual Masks exhibition and auction ended on June 28. We have a smaller auction until July 5 at a buy it now price of $25 for a handful of select Masks. Register below to bid on these Masks.

Pick up of Masks will be at the museum from July 8-12 during museum hours.
