Join us for 2025 Art Drop Day, an annual event hosted by Denver Arts and Venues! Our lovely volunteers painted lines from Art from Ashes youth poems on dozens of poetry rocks that will be scattered around Denver for YOU to find in this city-wide art scavenger hunt!
We invite you to visit your local parks and public spaces to find them! When you do, post a photo to your socials and tag Art from Ashes on Facebook or Instagram (@afaphoenix) using #ArtDropDenver2025 or #ArtDropDay. We’ll be dropping clues on where to find them throughout the day, so stay tuned!

“Art Drop Day is a worldwide celebration that connects communities by creating bonds between strangers through the act of sharing art. On the first Tuesday of each September, creators “drop” their works around town to surprise and delight art lovers, sharing clues on social media using #ArtDropDenver2025 and #ArtDropDay to aid in the search”
