GSA 2016 ANNUAL MEETING & EXPOSITION

Visit Denver Neighborhood Spotlight

The River North Art District “where art is made” goes by the nickname
of “RiNo” and has even adopted a rhino design for its official logo, so
look for creative rhinos in art and signage all around the neighborhood.
The district’s interesting blend of urban charm and unique industrial
revival makes it a great destination for visitors. Historic warehouses and
factories now house jazz bars, restaurants, brewpubs, art galleries, and
working studios. RiNo boasts a diverse mix of creative businesses
ranging from visual artists, designers, and furniture makers, to craft
distillers and brewers, winemakers, creators of unique outdoor gear, and
small-batch coffee roasters. Learn more by following the QR code on
this page.

housing a variety of restaurants, markets, artisan shops, and a
craft brewery.

CRAFT BEER, WINE, AND SPIRITS

RiNo has become an incubator for Denver’s craft brewing industry.
Longtime favorite Great Divide recently opened a taproom across the
street from The Source. Don’t miss the rest of the breweries in the
neighborhood, which are featured in the Denver Beer Trail (follow the
QR code, this page). The neighborhood is also home to an urban
winery, Infinite Monkey Theorem.
