Greenwood Village owes much of its public art to the<br />
Museum of Outdoor <strong>Art</strong>s, a forerunner in the placement<br />
of site-specific sculpture in Colorado.<br />
This art collection is located at various public<br />
locations throughout the Denver metro area. From<br />
commercial office parks to traditional sculpture gardens,<br />
the art is placed to interpret space as “a museum<br />
without walls.”<br />
Founded in 1981 by John W. Madden, Jr. and daughter<br />
Cynthia Madden Leitner, the Museum of Outdoor <strong>Art</strong>s is<br />
a synthesis of fine art, architecture and landscape design<br />
integrated into the community and business environment.<br />
It is fully accessible to the public, exemplifying the belief<br />
that art is a part of everyday life.<br />
The Museum of Outdoor <strong>Art</strong>s owns and operates<br />
Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre, which enhances its<br />
efforts in promoting outdoor performing arts and events.<br />
Marjorie Park, which is adjacent to the Amphitheatre, is<br />
one of the Museum’s primary outdoor and installation<br />
spaces. When the Museum of Outdoor <strong>Art</strong>s opened to<br />
the public in 1981, there were 19 art acquisitions on<br />
display. Currently, the pieces in the collection number<br />
over 150 with new changes occurring each year.<br />
