About the Clyfford Still Museum

Explore the world of Clyfford Still, one of the 20th century's pioneering Abstract Expressionist painters. The Clyfford Still Museum houses over 93 percent of Still’s lifetime work, featuring approximately 3,125 pieces created between 1920 and 1980, along with his complete archives.

Nestled in Denver's vibrant Golden Triangle Creative District, our award-winning museum is an architectural marvel designed exclusively to celebrate Still’s art. With nine thoughtfully curated galleries, visitors immerse themselves in Still’s evocative artworks, historic photographs, personal letters, and rare artifacts. The Museum offers a unique experience with interactive exhibitions, tranquil outdoor terraces, and behind-the-scenes views into our storage and conservation areas.

We also feature a hands-on art creation studio, a curated shop, and a dynamic calendar of programs and events. With free and pay-what-you-wish admission days offered throughout the year and complimentary entry for those 17 and under, the Clyfford Still Museum makes art accessible to all. We offer a variety of programs and events tailored for adults, students, young children, and caregivers.

Your Support

The artist’s widow honored his will by gifting the extraordinary collection of art and archives to the City and County of Denver in 2008. Your contribution unlocks the full potential of this remarkable legacy, allowing the Museum to stand as Denver’s gift to the world. You enable us to share Clyfford Still’s unparalleled collection with visitors of all ages and backgrounds. Your support sustains community programs, preserves and conserves the collection, and fuels dynamic exhibitions and educational initiatives. 

By donating, you help create inclusive experiences through exhibitions curated by diverse voices and programs designed to engage, educate, and inspire. Please consider making your gift a recurring monthly donation to support the Museum’s ongoing efforts throughout the year.
