“The energy in the SAM is unique and seldom matched by other shows I participate in (local or out of state)! Every artist I talk with that participates in SAM gets 'a twinkle in the eye' when we talk about SAM!”

“I had a great experience and am very grateful I was allowed to participate. Just today I was contacted by a gallery director who saw & liked my work and we are in process of coordinating a show date at the gallery.”
"Great crowd–I overheard lots of people calling their friends on their cell phones and raving about SAM. I personally appreciate the friendly atmosphere and cooperative spirit of artists and those working the event. SAM is becoming Denver's number one outdoor art show.”
“It's a great place to find good art and it's a great place for artists to strengthen their collector base. I have learned so much by participating in SAM.”
“I like the friendly atmosphere, the loyal patrons and how well organized it is. I really felt cared about as an artist.”
