Testimonials
"The Rocky Mountain Chapter of USA Dance feels that the beauty and significant historical value of the Turnverein is important to the community."
Susan Lowe, USA Dance, Rocky Mountain Chapter Board.
"... we feel extremely fortunate to use their space for the most important fundraising event we hold. The Turnverein is known for its prolific selection of dance events, and the Colorado Symphony is known for performing exquisite music. Both organizations share the mission of engaging and enhancing our community through the arts."
Jerome H. Kern, Colorado Symphony CEO & Co-Chair
"The dance floor brings joy to many participants and in my opinion; the facility is the premium location in Denver to hold events. The Denver Turnverein is a gem inside and out, that contributes to the historic character of the city and adds value to the lives of Coloradans."
Michele Delgado, Tango Colorado
Mission

Background Statement
Founded in Denver in 1865, the Denver Turnverein is the oldest organization of its type in Colorado. We are affiliated with the national American Turners organization, started by German immigrants fleeing war torn Europe in 1848. Turnvereins sprang up around the US to promote social activities, physical fitness, and healthy minds. In August, 2022, the Denver Turnverein celebrated its 100 year anniversary in their historic building at the intersection of E. 16th Ave. and N. Clarkson St.
