Shopping

There was a big to-do when the Denver Art Museum opened its expansion last year, but have you heard about the new Museum Shop? Wow. It's 3,300 square feet of artful gift items. This fall, look for items inspired by the exhibition on loan from the Louvre. 720-865-5035.

It may be a little early for fall colors, but if you're in the market for some original art, head to Crested Butte on Sept. 1 for the annual People's Fair. An eclectic mix of artwork by local artists will be on sale, along with antiques, food and music. 970-349-6484.
