events

At Osmosis Gallery, we are dedicated to showcasing the talent and creativity of Colorado artists. Our monthly rotating exhibitions, featuring a new show every month, offer art lovers a fresh and diverse selection of contemporary fine art, including paintings, sculptures, jewelry, and mixed media pieces.

Our exhibitions kick off with a bang on First Friday, as a part of the Niwot Art Walk, where visitors can enjoy an evening of art, music, and community. We also take part in several events throughout the year, in partnership with the Niwot Business Association (NBA) and the Niwot Cultural Arts Association (NCAA).
