About the Event

Our biannual gala, For Love of the Land, returns May 14, 2026, at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science.

Colorado is facing the next challenge of conservation in an ever-changing landscape, and Colorado Open Lands is leading the way. Come together with the best minds in business, philanthropy and conservation to make an impact that will last more than a lifetime. The evening event will include a private cocktail reception for lead sponsors, a full-course dinner, and an inspiring program highlighting the generational impact of conservation.

Individual tickets will be available in March. Confirm your table sponsorship today by contacting Elizabeth Silverman!
