In 1908 an idea was sparked to create a formal group whose goal was to encourage and gain public support for the fine arts. It was not until 1928 that this goal was realized and The Denver Artists Guild was born. The first exhibit of the new guild was held on June 11, 1928 at Chappel House, where the guild met monthly. The house was eventually razed to make way for the Denver Art Museum.
