As the River North Art District continues to fill in with new development, Charity Von Guinness is trying to make sure there will still be space for the artists who first brought the area to life.
At the heart of the neighborhood is RiNo Art Park, a collection of brick-laden buildings nestled against the new Arkins Promenade park and the South Platte River. Almost a year into her tenure as the executive director with the district, Von Guinness is celebrating a landmark opening there – an affordable, multi-use performance space dubbed the Truss House.
