    The Colorado Photographic Arts Center is an absolute must-visit for anyone new to photography moving to the state, as well as for seasoned working professionals looking to connect with a strong, passionate community. CPAC hosts amazing workshops and events, and their gallery exhibitions are always inspiring. They have done so much to shape and support the local photography community for years, and in my experience, they just keep getting better and better.

    Super cool facility with very kind staff! They offer classes on multiple kinds of photography, and even the darkroom- which can also be rented out.

    My favorite part is the analog photo booth, super cool stuff!
