Denver International Airport Now Accepting Applications for Rotating Sculpture Program

DENVER - March 27, 2026 - Denver International Airport (DEN) is inviting artists to apply to showcase one of their existing sculptures on the DEN campus. DEN's rotating sculpture program is a public art incubator that offers artists in varying stages of their career the chance to gain experience installing and displaying art in an airport environment. Seasoned artists with airport experience are also encouraged to apply. Rotating sculptures are selected biannually through a competitive selection process for six-month rotations.

The spring, 2026 cycle invites artists to submit proposals featuring works that reflect Colorado's 150th Anniversary and/or the United States' 250th Anniversary. Artists are encouraged to interpret these milestones through themes of history, landscape, innovation, community and the evolving American experience. Selected sculptures will engage travelers from around the world and celebrate the stories that shape Colorado and the nation. The selected sculptures will be on display on Concourse B from June through December 2026.

The application period will run through April 12. An optional information session will be held at noon on April 6. The application can be found at https://www.flydenver.com/at-the-airport/art/opportunities/. The selected artist will receive an honorarium for their work.
