Join us for a unique and immersive basket weaving workshop led by Salix, a Muscogee/Cherokee artist and instructor. The first 45 minutes will explore Indigenous history and the Cherokee tradition of basketry, followed by a hands-on lesson where you’ll learn how to start, shape, and finish your own basket using natural and dyed reeds. Be prepared to get your hands wet as you craft a meaningful piece to take home! Salix, a queer two-spirit artist and self-proclaimed “elder millennial,” brings rich cultural knowledge and a passion for mindful, community-centered art.
In the heart of the city, this rural oasis featuring both indoor and outdoor spaces, is perfect for your wedding, picnic, or special celebration.
Four Mile’s on-site programs offer students the opportunity to immerse themselves in the rich history of Denver’s early days through hands-on learning. Students tailor their experience in the “Four Mile Sampler” by selecting from various activities, including butter-making and exploring Four Mile’s many outbuildings. In “Cherry Creek Traveler,” students explore preparations families made for the journey west, examining wagons and essentials for the trip. “Four Mile Farm Life” comprises five activities that guide students through a morning at a 19th-century farmhouse.
Through events, interactive programming, and education, Four Mile connects guests to the region’s western heritage by sharing the stories and experiences of those who shaped Denver 166 years ago. Our signature events include Bright Nights, Egg Hunt, Pumpkin Harvest Festival, Spirits & Spirits, Brunch with Father Christmas, Night Brunch, and the Four Mile Rendezvous Gala.
