MCA Denver at the Holiday Theater is a hub for the arts located in this historic, 400-seat theater. We aim to realize one-of-a-kind, creative experiences for audiences that spark curiosity, challenge conventions, inspire, and delight.

The Museum of Contemporary Art Denver presents How Art is Born, a podcast that delves deep into the creative process with artists representing the spectrum of artmaking. Join host R. Alan Brooks, a comic book writer and professor, for a conversation with a different creative person each episode, learning about their artistic practice. How and where are their ideas generated? Which ideas become art and which ones stay on the cutting room floor? How did their careers as artists begin? Get the story behind the artist and how their art is born.

Yep we do. From interviews with local bands, artists, community members to deep dives into themes tackled in our current exhibitions, the blog is the place to spend your lunch break. Promise.
