The Creative Stays program is an ongoing digital campaign to showcase Colorado Springs and the surrounding community to cultural tourists.

Inspired by Arts Vision 2030, the 10-year cultural plan for our region, and funded by a $20,000 grant from the Colorado Tourism Office, Creative Stays features a series of weekend getaway itineraries curated by a diverse group of local creatives.

With content creation help by Springs Media and Jason-Fleming.com, each of these local creatives will share a little about themselves, and recommend some of their favorite lodging accommodations, community attractions, restaurants, entertainment activities, hidden hangouts, and not-to-miss cultural destinations.

Perfect for out-of-town visitors and local residents alike, Creative Stays offers a whole new way to explore and discover the wonderful attractions and amenities that Colorado’s Pikes Peak region has to offer.

You can follow these itineraries exactly, or pick and choose to customize your own favorite experiences. Sometimes all you need to make your weekend getaway perfect is a little creativity!
