Giving is Now Open!
All donations made online now through December 9 count toward Colorado Gives Day and the $1 million+ Incentive Fund. It’s easily the best day to give.
From Our Founder: Thanks to you, 2025 has been a remarkable year for East Side Art Institute. From another successful farming season and joyful fields of sunflowers to community gatherings like Earth Day and the Elderberry Festival. Every gift, volunteer hour, and kind word has helped transform our land into a home for the arts. As we take the next big step—raising funds to complete our first building and expand our classes, workshops, and community events—we need your support more than ever. Your Colorado Gives donation will help turn this shared vision into a vibrant, welcoming space where creativity can flourish and our community can learn, grow, and find refuge through art.

This year’s Elderberry Festival was our most vibrant yet! The land was buzzing with energy as families, friends, and neighbors gathered to enjoy tasty offerings from local food trucks, live music, and creative activities for all ages.
