These doors were part of the Municipal Auditorium when it opened in 1908. Its first event was hosting the Democratic National Convention. For decades, this venue staged countless shows ranging from theater, concerts and sporting events. The building underwent three major renovations in the mid-1950s, early 1990s and the last time in 2005. Then it became the 2,200 seat Ellie Caulkins Opera House. This name is a tribute to a major benefactor and “Denver’s First Lady of Opera.”
