Loveland Rotary Special Events
Governor's Art Show
The Colorado Governor’s Art Show & Sale, one of the largest fine art shows to exclusively feature Colorado artists, introduces the public to 65 of Colorado’s top fine artists. The 35th Annual Governor’s Art Show will open Saturday, April 25th through June 6th, 2026. The show will handle online sales beginning April 25th through the show’s website.
The Governor’s Art Show is presented by the Loveland and Thompson Valley Rotary Clubs, in conjunction with the Loveland Museum and endorsed by the Governor of Colorado. The Show is truly “Art With Heart” as 100% of the proceeds benefit Rotary-sponsored charitable projects and causes, including scholarships for local art students and the Thompson Education Foundation (TEF) Resiliency Fund for Unhoused Youth. The goal of TEF is to ensure education stability and success by providing support and assistance to students and families in homeless situations.

Duck Race
The Loveland Rotary duck race has been held every summer as part of the Loveland Corn Roast Festival for the past 30 years. Small rubber ducks are dropped into the Big Thompson River. Each duck is numbered and the people who bought tickets with the same numbers as the ducks that cross the finish line ahead of the rest, win some amazing prizes.
You can also decorate a larger duck and put it on display at Chase Bank and the Corn Roast Festival.
