Denver Museum of Nature & Science-free day
August 29, 2016 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
Denver’s most popular museum is undoubtedly the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, not surprisingly since Denverites take such pride in their pristine mile-high, Rocky Mountain metropolis. With an IMAX theater and interactive exhibits, the Denver museum is a hit with families and visitors.
The Scientific & Cultural Facilities District is a voter-approved special district in the seven-county metro area that provides a stable source of supplemental funding to more than 300 scientific and cultural organizations inside the district’s boundaries. The SCFD collects a one-tenth of 1 percent sales-and-use tax (or one penny on every $10 spent), providing approximately $40 million each year to area cultural attractions both small and large.
