Side Stories is Back And Bringing The Love To RiNo

A projected mural installation at Side Stories 2022

Love is in the air, and on the walls, in RiNo this week. After a year hiatus, Side Stories — an immersive, large format film installation featuring Colorado artists — is back for its fourth rendition, running until February 20. Timed perfectly with Valentine’s Day, this year’s theme focuses on something the world seems to desperately need nowadays: a good love story. 

While on a walking tour of Montreal, Side Stories co-founder Fiona Arnold was inspired by the projection of historic images along the city walls. Partnering with The Martin Family Foundation and RiNo Art District in 2017, their team brought this concept to Denver, but with their own twist. Rather than historic images, they decided to provide local artists with a unique canvas — the walls of the city around them.
