‘You Cannot Stop Creativity’: Jérôme Sans on Denver’s New Cookie Factory Art Space

This weekend, Denver’s cultural landscape gains a striking new addition with the opening of Cookie Factory, a contemporary art space housed in a former fortune cookie factory in the city’s Baker neighbourhood. Conceived by philanthropist, real estate developer and designer Amanda J. Precourt and artist Andrew Jensdotter, the institution is free to the public, dedicated to commissioning new work, and operates outside a traditional non-profit model – eschewing a board and donor competition in favour of curatorial independence. To shape its vision, they invited renowned curator Jérôme Sans to serve as artistic director.
