Grand Slam Paint Jam

Start: Saturday, June 27, 2026 12:00PM
End: Sunday, June 28, 2026 9:00PM

Denver’s vibrant street art community will take center stage June 27–28 during the inaugural Grand Slam Paint Jam, a live mural festival bringing together more than 20 local and nationally recognized muralists and creatives for a weekend of large-scale public art, music and workshops at 2239 Lawrence St. in Denver. Hosted by Vision 88, the free public festival will feature artists painting live murals throughout the weekend, including immersive production walls, interactive art experiences, food vendors, music, workshops, and a community-centered gallery experience benefiting local nonprofit initiatives. Organizers expect between 2,000 and 5,000 attendees over the two-day event. “A paint jam in the graffiti community is a space created for artists to come together and break bread,” Grhimm Xavier, Co-Owner of Vision88 said. “This festival is built upon collaboration, inclusivity, and bringing communities together through free public art.” The festival’s featured artists include Dream Scape, Johnny Draco, KT Allen, Jules Mendoza, Jason Hernandez, Kaitlin Zeismer, Skela, Max Coleman, and many others whose work has appeared throughout Denver and across the country. In addition to live mural painting, the event will include a fundraising component for Art For Eyes, a nonprofit focused on raising awareness about retinoblastoma and helping provide financial support for children needing prosthetic eyes. Founder and advocate, Meg Landry, will host gallery exhibitions and workshops during the festival. Portions of art sales directly support children with vision impairments. Festival organizers are also partnering with community groups and additional nonprofits to create accessible creative spaces for attendees of all ages and abilities, including sensory-friendly activities, artist networking opportunities and educational workshops.
