DENVER—Denver is spending about $200,000 to spruce up some of its public art ahead of this summer’s Democratic National Convention.
Seven prominent pieces are being cleaned, repainted and repaired in preparation for the August convention.
Crews are targeting pieces that convention-goers are most likely to see.
Among them is Donald Lipski’s “The Yearling,” a horse standing on a giant red chair outside the downtown public library. The horse has been removed so the chair can be repainted.
Repair funds are part of a $550 million bond issue voters approved last year for maintenance projects.
Denver has nearly 300 pieces of public art.
