We got some "ghosty" photos from a member before we remodeled the Astor House… what do you think of these?

Built in 1867, the Astor House is one of Golden’s oldest landmarks—and some say it holds more than just memories. For over a century, this former boarding house welcomed weary travelers, miners, and townsfolk, becoming a vital part of Golden’s community life.

Today, as the new home of Foothills Art Center, its walls continue to echo with whispers of history. Come explore our current exhibitions and visit the Astor House History Wall upstairs to uncover the stories of its past. Do you dare to visit? #AstorHouse #GoldenCO #FoothillsArtCenter #HauntedHistory #ExploreGolden #Ghosts #Haunted

Meet our next “Faces of Foothills” … it’s

Meet our next “Faces of Foothills” … it’s Mitchell Oliver, our very FIRST Artist in Residence!
Mitchell is an interdisciplinary artist who blends ceramics, image, sound, and performance to explore how the world is designed to shape our perceptions. Mitchell brings a fresh perspective to his art, challenging us to rethink how we interact with our devices, environments, and the objects we use daily. Through his large-scale installations, Mitchell invites us to reflect on the human experience, the materiality of technology, and the potential illusions of reality. His functional ceramics are crafted with care, encouraging us to pause and truly engage with the items that shape our everyday rituals. Sign up now for one of his classes! #foothillsartcenter #artistinresidence #contemporaryart #ceramics #artandtechnology #creativecommunity #artistsoninstagram #artist #artteachersofinstagram
