Denver’s contemporary-focused Coors Western Art Exhibit & Sale is hitting the ground running as it gears up for events later this year and the big show in January 2025. The next show, the 32nd annual event, will feature more than 75 artists in the exhibit.
“We are looking forward to the 2025 Coors Show and welcoming many new and returning artists to the show,” says curator Kate Hlavin. “This year is full of great change and only the start of what is to come. We have over 80 artists in the show from all over the country working many mediums all with a common theme of the West.”

This year’s featured artist will be Colorado painter Duke Beardsley, whose use of Western iconography and repeated images on fields of color make him one of the more modern painters working today, and he has collectors inside and outside the West.
“It is especially an honor to have Duke Beardsley as our featured artist for 2025,” says Hlavin. “As a native to Colorado with deep roots in Denver and ranching, his paintings exemplify the American West with a pop of color and energy.”
