Colorado Springs Festivals and Events: Aug. 28-30 Highlights

Colorado Springs has a lively stretch of events coming up, with options for art lovers, tattoo fans, and anyone looking for an evening out downtown. Some programs may require tickets or advance planning, so it is worth checking availability before you go. On Aug. 28, the Wings of Change Grand Reveal will bring a colorful collection of artist-designed butterfly and dragonfly sculptures to the lawn at the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum. The gathering runs from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at 215 N. Tejon St. and offers a first look at the pieces before they move on to auction. The event highlights local creativity while giving visitors a chance to see public art up close in one of the city’s most recognizable downtown settings. It is an easy stop for residents, families, and visitors who want to enjoy a relaxed community event after work. Also running Aug. 28 through 30, the Villain Arts Tattoo Festival offers three days centered on tattoo culture, artists, and bold visual expression. Hours are scheduled from 2 to 11 p.m., creating a late-day destination for people interested in body art, live tattooing, and the energy of a large creative gathering.
