Welcome to the River North Art District, or RiNo for short.
Located just north of downtown, RiNo includes a remarkable concentration of creative businesses, including
architects, art galleries, designers, furniture makers, illustrators, painters, media artists, photographers, sculptors, and an array of studio spaces.
RiNo is bounded by I-70 to the North, I-25 to the West, Park Avenue West to the South, and Lawrence to the East.
While retaining its industrial roots, the RiNo neighborhood is now fertile ground for arts and artists.
The River North Art District is dedicated to promoting and supporting the people and businesses that reside in the area.
The official nickname for the district is "RiNo," pronounced rhino! Created from the first two letters of the neighborhood River North. It's sticking!
RiNo is the trademarked name for the River North Art District. RiNo includes creative businesses in River North, Upper Larimer & Globeville.
Situated along the Platte River Bike Path, getting to and around RiNo is fun and easy. The arts district is located near Coors Field and LoDo. Walkers and cyclists can take exits on 31st St. and 38th Ave. to easily land in the heart of RiNo. By car, the district is easily accessible via I-70 or I-25 off of exits for Brighton Blvd. or Washington Street. Easy-to-use RiNo field guides are available here.

The River North Art District is one of the closest neighborhoods in proximity to Downtown Denver. The combination of the location and the creative personality of the neighborhood are leading to increasing development. Several projects are under construction,others are in the process of being designed and RiNo welcomes the new opportunities.
As advocates for the neighborhood and its residents, the River North Art District strongly encourages developers to consider the personality of RiNo as you move forward with any building project.
Without the creative people who help to make the neighborhood vital, your development risks losing much of its value and certainly much of its charm. For this reason, we have developed a set of RiNo Voluntary Standards for Developers.
Each month we will promote the developers that follow these standards in the RiNo Crow.
